This is Owen Barrett's Story

My Son Owen Barrett is headed into the HA22 trial to fight his 8th relapse with leukemia in 10 years. He has been fighting like the Warrior he is since he was 5 years old. Last year we did a bone marrow transplant that failed and he has gone through the full gauntlet of available chemo therapy treatments. The outcome is poor for patients who have high-risk ALL or relapse. This HA22 trial is an phase 1 experiment that is only taking place at the NIH in Maryland, USA. It is our last hope to get this disease under control.We are from Vancouver BC Canada. The hospital has agreed to pay for Owen and my plane tickets but cannot fund his brother to fly with us. We are not sure about accommodation yet or exactly how long we will be staying. The treatment runs 5 weeks but how well Owen tolerates the drugs is yet to be seen. I am a single father of modest means. Our rent and bills up here still have to be kept as well as food, transportation and any other occurred costs while we are away. Plus any additional time if there are complications with treatment. Owens attitude going into this experimental treatment is "even if I die maybe some other kid will get to live." A brave attitude for a 15 year old kid. Hes right. No matter what the outcome this is a worthy battle for all leukemia patients. Any help you could send our way to help Owen in this fight would be greatly appreciated. For him and everyone like him. Thank you very much.
