Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of cancer did Micah have?
Micah had metastatic Wilm’s tumor – a cancer of the kidney. By the time it was diagnosed, his cancer had metastasized to his lungs. Micah has been cancer free since 1977.
When I took him to see his surgeon at age eleven years, the doctor said, “You are Micah Freedman’s parents? How wonderful! He made medical history. We did not think he would survive.”
