Corbin N.

Corbin is such a sweet-hearted kid and can be won over with something as simple as bubbles. He loves his little sister, Lily, so much and you can always find the two of them having fun together. He lives his life with so much joy and makes everyone around him so happy!

Sibling: Lily

Parents Names: Dana and Jon

"Corbin has the ability to light up any room he walks into, and anyone that has met him can testify. I remember during chapter walks Corbin was going around and complimenting everyone he saw. It does not take long to bring out Corbin’s energy. He inspires me because he dreams big, and he already knows he wants to be a police officer when he grows up. My BuckeyeThon experience would not be the same without the joy that comes from Corbin and his amazing family."

Corbin's Cancer Journey:

Corbin was diagnosed with Stage III Neuroblastoma when he was only 6 months old. His parents realized he wasn’t moving his legs or sitting up on his own, so they scheduled an MRI which revealed a tumor wrapped around his spinal cord. He underwent four rounds of chemotherapy, as well as surgery. Corbin has been cancer free since his first birthday, however, he still feels effects from his battle with cancer. He has a sweet, spunky attitude that can make anyone laugh!
