Recently, 2-year-old Tripp Jackson Murray was at a playground when his mother noticed something wasn’t right with Tripp. After the boy started to lose his balance, his mother Kim noticed one of his eyes was starting to turn inward. She immediately took him to EMMC. They did a CAT scan and discovered a brain tumor on his cerebellum and brain stem about 2½-inches long. Tripp was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a life-threatening type of brain cancer. So Kim's friends have gone back to where their friendships began to raise money to help with medical costs!
