Lurie Children's Stories of Hope: Payton's Brave Journey with Cancer

Payton was diagnosed with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) at just six years old. Sadly, Payton has passed since this video was filmed. We've left this video up in honor of Payton's memory.

Special thanks to video producers Green River Films.

Oh my got the little innocent soul!. The cancer treatment is painfull. Like chemos, drugs, surgeries. I had all of them i also have cancer from the age 9. I can understand the pain 🖤

I am 39 and i would have gladly given my life in return for this kids life, i have a daughter n a son and it hurts so bad that he passed away.

OMG I REMEMBER I WAS PLAYING WTH HIM WHEN I WAS SICK AT THE HOSPITAL OMG

[pattisakwa]

I don’t care if you have kids or not I’m still supporting you

[sienna]

The people who disliked this video are heartless for that poor little boy.

It makes me cry to see kids fighting cancer. I feel so bad that these kids get every thing taken away, even their life, it's not fair.I am greatful that people are out there who help these kids every step of the way. Please like if you want to help kids with cancer. This is a lot coming from me, a normal 13 year old who has a big heart.

Poor kid had to go through that. Now he can't wear both shoes. Why do kids get cancer? Description says he has passed. Rest in peace little buddy.

This story is not fake. I knew Payton very well. Despite the aggressive cancer treatments he received and the excellent care he received Payton passed away on December 15, 2015.

[Glory-Compass]

I can't even imagine what type of Human Being would Dislike this

[marijaordic]

Poor little boy, i can't even imagine how much kids and grown people died of cancer, RIP little boy🌎💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭

[Kim-mdbg]

i dont have words... this child... poor little thing... i just want to hug him tight and cry and tell him how brave and beautiful he is

[ASM]

You know the pharmaceutical company that created OxyContin and said it wasn't addictive? They should pay outrageous sums of money for cancer treatment so kids like this one get the best possible care.

[Inkdkneesuh]

[biancamatthews]

This made me cry! He's an inspiration to others.

[tamaraj]

Sadly this doesn't have a happy ending but at least he is no longer in pain and having to take those toxic drugs.
