Aidan Reed from Kansas to the U.S. at the age of five years to face a severe illness, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Treatment is very expensive, so the boy paints images that are then sold on the Internet. His parents in this way helps with medical expenses. Little Aidan now spends all his time in the hospital, where he draws a picture with a favorite topic for another monster.
The idea came Ostein boy’s aunt, who, although his nephew could not help financially, but decided to take several pictures Aidanových and try to sell them on Etsy.com site where people put up for sale hand made products. With a price of $ 12 per piece was about the pictures so popular that Ostein began shipping more and more batches.
Although little Aidan draws his creatures in the hospital almost continuously, demand was so high eventually that her aunt had to start printing. Over the last two weeks has sold more than two and a half thousand drawings and management of Aidan and selected over a half million.
“It’s huge and incredible. This year, we still have some unpleasant things, but this proved to us that people have hearts, “said the boy’s father, Wiley Redd.
Little Aidan must fight from leukemia at the 13th September. The family feared that they were on the expensive treatment is not enough insurance, long ago in addition to their second child was born. Boy’s parents thought so, they will have to sell my little house. Fears are dispelled, however, at least for now, because money from selling pictures for a while Aidan cover treatment.
All five American drawings have the same theme, and various ghosts and monsters. They fascinated him since five years old when he was with his parents to look at costume shops. Frightening it says all is not an option, and draws too much.
Aidan should be more than a 90 percent chance of cure from illness and his family and all those who bought the boy’s picture, hoping that the specter of a boy with leukemia name quickly cleared.
