This past Thursday I had the opportunity to travel back to New York. While I was walking across the Brooklyn Bridge I came across Selena (above picture), she was very friendly and allowed me to photograph her. In doing so I found out the following story and want to share it with you.

Selena's Words-

My 11 year old nephew, Riley Kim, was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 Alveolar Rhambfyosarcoma, a rare cancer, and has just started a 42-week chemo treatment. He and his family are getting a lot of strength from all the love and support shown on his Facebook page - "Team Riley"- even by people they don't know. Riley is tracking where each comment comes from on a world map, and is quite literally feeling the love. Please take a second to like the page or even post a short note of encouragement. It would mean a lot, and it helps our family feel connected, stay positive, and keep going through this excruciatingly difficult time. Thanks Team Humanity!
