As most of you have probably previously read, my cousin, Dayton, is facing a very aggressive brain cancer diagnosis. He has undergone 2 invasive brain surgeries within just over a month, along with physical therapy to recover from said surgeries.

His fight is far from over with chemotherapy and radiation treatments on the calendar in the coming weeks.

Dayton is 17 years old and a senior at Central Regional High School. Prior to being hospitalized, he was gearing up for his senior football season at school.

He has somehow maintained his usual funny and positive attitude and has been unbelievably brave throughout this entire process. He is an amazing kid who comes from an amazing family.

Both of Dayton’s parents teach within the Central Regional school district, and his twin sisters attend Central Regional HS as sophomores.

The Frulios are an extremely involved family, with all 3 kids playing sports and receiving accolades in school. They have donated countless time and money to the Autism speaks foundation, and are all around the best kind of people.

They are always the first to give back and help others in need. It is now their turn to be helped.

We’d like to do our best to give them at least a small sense of normalcy in the coming months while they navigate their new situation and we hope donations can help ease the stress of medical bills pouring in while still trying to run a 5-person household. In this battle, the Frulio family will not fight alone!!!
