Nicholas Miaskowski

On May 22, 2006, Nicholas was diagnosed with a brain tumor called Medjulablastoma while he was 10 years old.  Nicholas received 9 rounds of chemo and 30 days of radiation over the course of his battle with cancer. On September 26, 2007, Nicholas was fortunate to have finished his treatments and was deemed a survivor.

In 2007, Nicholas attended the Circle of Friends Winter Camp in Wisconsin with Halo of Hope, and in 2009 he traveled to Florida with Halo for the Summer Reunion Camp.

Nicholas is now 17 years old, and about to begin his senior year in high school. He plans to go to college to major in guitar performance. In his spare time he enjoys playing guitar, video games and spending time with friends.

“Because of these experiences, I made new friends that understood my treatment. I experienced new things with new people, and I just sort of grew out of being a sad cancer patient and I’m insanely thankful for that.” -Nicholas
