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.

    When I hear people being dead from luekemia I think it is sad because my mum told me a story about a girl in the year 1992 who was 10 years old in 1992 died from luekemia but she was born with it in 1982 so she died in 1992 with No one trying to help her at all before she died, then my friend told me she had a cousin who was born in 2005 with luekemia and died on December,3,2010 at age 5 from luekemia and the 5 year olds parents were like 27 and 28 years old when they lost their 5 year old daughter from luekemia the 10 year old in 1992 died from it because there may have NOT been a cure for luekemia in 1992 the 5 year old people let her die without NO help from like Make A Wish or whatever etc. because when she died at her funeral they had her favorite music playing by her favorite rock star Marilyn Manson and people were like well if she liked Marilyn Manson and listened to his music then well she deserved to die I thought that was WRONG of people to say that she deserved to die because over the kind of music she liked that I am sure most 5 year olds DON’T but that is what I think because I like the same kind of music as she did NOW and BACK when I was 5 years old in 2002 so I am older than her and I listened to that type of music when I was 5 but it is WRONG for her to like that music then have people at her funeral say she deserved to die from luekemia over the music she listened to stupid isn’t it to disagree with her music and want her dead over that.
