(COWBOY STATE DAILY) – As kids all over Wyoming were asking their parents and Santa for video games, smartphones and other devices for Christmas, 10-year-old Talyn Reimer of Rawlins had a much different wish. He didn’t want to die before the end of the year.
“This whole year has been a horrible, rough year for him,” mom Bobbie Robidoux told Cowboy State Daily on Tuesday. “He would say all he wanted for Christmas was to get through the year alive.”
Hearing that as your child’s Christmas wish “was just heart-wrenching” and part of nearly a year Robidoux describes as “a nightmare” for her son and family. That’s because Talyn has been going through months of intense chemotherapy to shrink a giant tumor in his head that ate through his cheekbone and was pressing into his brain. The only thing that kept the tumor from eating into his brain as well was the thin membrane that surrounds it.
