Carson Leslie Foundation

When cancer was unyielding & hospice took over; Carson whispered words I will never forget. o Momma, I thought I was ‘gonna make it o Momma, don’t let them bury me o Make sure they study my brain, ‘cause If those tumors can help some kid, not die from cancer like I am, I’d like that o It’s hard to have cancer o Make sure my book gets published A few months after his death, The Carson Leslie Foundation busted onto the scene, honoring Carson’s dying wish & has made REMARKABLE strides in the world of childhood cancer research. Congressman McCaul invited Annette to speak in his D.C. home kicking off his bipartisan childhood cancer caucus; which resulted in The Creating Hope Act, signed by the president, incentivizing pharmaceuticals to develop drugs for children with cancer and other life threatening diseases. Carson book, Carry Me was published 6 days before he died; his words have helped change the way nurses nurse, how doctors care for their patients, helped friends stay steadfast in friendships. Carry Me is Carson’s journal of what it is like to be a kid fighting for life. His words are his raw, true & honest. Thousands of copies have sold; It’s in The Library of Congress & every penny goes to research.
