Aidan S., of Rockville Center, was three when he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. With his twin brother Mason, by his side, Aiden persevered through three years of chemotherapy. The pandemic prevented his family from having a traditional celebration, but Aiden’s community came together to stage the party he deserved.

A 30-car parade took place on his street to salute his bravery and determination. There was a fire engine and the NYPD Pipes and Drums of the Emerald Society!

Congratulations, Aidan. You inspire us all!
