We have our next Rodeo Kid, Dalton Smith! Dalton will be our guest at the 2024 Hoppel's Championship Rodeo this year! We are excited to have him and to give his family a night full of family fun and without worry!

Below is a little bit about Dalton:

Daltons battle with cancer started in August of 2015 when he was 6 years old .He was diagnosed with medduloblastoma, a childhood cancer that develops in the cerebellum area of the brain. His tumor was removed at Pittsburgh Childrens Hospital, and he then had 32 rounds of radiation treatments to his brain and 10 to his Spine. After treatments, he was given a month to recover, and then he went through 7 months of chemotherapy. After the chemotherapy was finished, he was then monitored with MRIs every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years. After 5 years of no signs of cancer, an MRI in September of 2021 showed some growth in the area of the original tumor site. He then had an MRI of spine that showed a large tumor on his spinal cord in his upper back and a smaller tumor near his tailbone region. After dismal discussions with his oncologist in Pittsburgh, we decided to leave there and come to the Mayo clinic in Minnesota for better quality of care. Once we arrived at the Mayo clinic, we were greeted by some of the world's best doctors. We then were given a plan to remove the tumor from his spinal cord and treat the other two areas with a year-long chemotherapy regimen. 10 months after chemo, the tumor near the tailbone started to grow again. We then were offered a radiation treatment called Proton Beam Radiation for the lower tumor that would only affect the tumor and not any other healthy tissue. After 30 days of treatments, we went back home. A month later, after follow-up scans, it was determined to be successful in destroying that tumor.

In January of this year, an MRI showed some new growth on the tumor in the brain,. We then were offered surgery to remove the tumor, and it was a successful surgery. A month after surgery, his incision on the back of his head and neck started leaking due to an infection. We then made the trip back to the Mayo clinic in Minnesota for 3 more surgeries and a month long stay to get rid of the infection that turned into spinal meningitis. After he was released from the hospital, we were asked to keep him here in Minnesota to be close to his doctors. After a lot of follow-up appointments, he was then cleared to start Proton Beam Radiation treatments on his brain. He is receiving 2 treatments a day for 20 days this time.

Dalton has had multiple surgeries, 19 months of chemotherapy treatments nearing 100 plus doses, and when these radiation treatments are completed, he will have had 112 doses of radiation throughout his body, more scans, doctors visits, blood work and other issues than I can count through the past 9 almost 10 years. He never complains and doesn't like to look back he only looks forward. I do know he doesn't like to be the center of attention and doesn't like to talk about it to people, he just wants to be treated like a normal 15 year old.

We would like to introduce you to our next Rodeo Kid for the Salem Stampede Championship Rodeo in January - AJ!!!

A little bit about AJ from his Mom:

Arthur (AJ) James was born in January 2019 with Hypoplastic left heart syndrome and a rare genetic disorder Bardet-Biedl. He spent the first 10 months of his life in the cicu at Children’s National in DC. AJ has had 5 open heart surgeries and 3 additional surgeries, suffered a stroke and a mini-stroke, and currently is on hospice care as we are out of options for his heart. Aj has spent a good part of his life in the hospital. He is the sweetest boy you’ll ever meet. He has overcome so much in his short life and continues to show us Gods is in control. Aj goes to preschool and enjoys playing with his teachers and friends. At home, AJ enjoys playing with his sisters and watching Toy Story and Spidey.

If you would like to help us make AJ's night special at the rodeo by sending cards, gifts, gift cards, etc, please message us.

Our wonderful extended Team DO3 member, Kevin DeBusk will be showing this family all the behind-the-scenes fun at the rodeo and making sure they get the VIP Treatment! If you are competing at the rodeo, please also reach out so we can have you stop to say hello to AJ and sign his hat and grab a selfie with him and his family!
