Elijah was an extraordinary young man who touched all of us here at CHOP. Thank you @AlexsLemonade for sharing the great pictures, including Elijah playing the guitar he loved.

Yesterday, we lost a member of our Foundation’s family. Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) employee and childhood cancer hero, Elijah Talley passed away at the age of 18.

Each of us at ALSF has a fond memory of Elijah – whether it was listening to him play his guitar or working side-by-side with him at events to raise awareness and money for research.

[Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation @AlexsLemonade]

Elijah always shared his story so generously, hoping to inspire all of us to continue to fight for children and young adults, like him.

Last year in a guest blog post he wrote, "I hope that by bringing awareness and doing my part, I can help change another family’s life as well." https://t.co/6TwbJkfLak

Elijah's labs were good today. Pain seems to have improved a bit more. Hoping we are on the upswing and he will continue to feel better each day.

Elijah is having some pain. We are getting ready to head to clinic to see if there is anything we can do before he's able to get started on new drugs. We may need to do something in the interim to bridge so things don't get out of control.
Prayers are appreciated.

E's MIBG scan was stable with 2 areas of slight improvement. Thank you so much for your prayers!! We are hopeful that everything else will work out so he can start this trial on schedule.

What happened today to @JussieSmollett must never be tolerated in this country. We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jussie.
