[(Title)] Dying boy asks for racing stickers to cover casket.
An 11-year-old boy who is living his remaining days at home after his cancer treatment stopped working is on a mission to collect racing stickers for his casket.
一名11岁的男孩在停止癌症治疗后正在家中度过余下的日子,他正在执行一项任务,为自己的棺材搜集赛车贴纸。
Caleb Hammond, who was diagnosed with leukemia in February 2017, has been an avid racing fan since he was 2 years old, The Des Moines Register reported.
据报道,2017年2月被诊断为白血病的哈蒙德自2岁起就一直是一个狂热的赛车迷。
"He's my racing buddy," Chris Playle, Hammond's uncle, told the news outlet. "It was kind of our deal. I probably had just as much fun as he did."
哈蒙德的叔叔克里斯·普莱尔告诉媒体说:“他是我的赛车伙伴,这是我们的共同乐趣。”
Playle said the family is focused on enjoying the time they have left with Hammond after watching him suffer through symptoms of heart failure after treatment left him in a medically-induced coma.
普莱尔说,在治疗使哈蒙德陷入医疗引发的昏迷后,他经历了心力衰竭的症状,他的家人正专注于和哈蒙德一起享受剩下的时光。
While Playle said there were other options available, Hammond and his parents decided to let him enjoy the things he was missing out on while hospitalized.
虽然普莱尔说还有其他选择,哈蒙德和他的父母决定让他享受住院期间错过的东西。
"Medically, he's pretty strong," Playle told the news outlet. "I know later on in the evenings he's tired, he's ready to settle down… he gets worn-out kind of easy. But otherwise he's still pretty strong and spirits still pretty high."
“从医学角度来看,他挺强壮的,”普莱尔对记者说,“我后来知道在晚上他累了,他已经准备好休息.....他变得容易疲惫。但除此之外,他仍然非常强壮,非常有活力。”
Playle said that once the racing community heard about his nephew's wish for stickers, the word quickly spread on social media.
普莱尔说,赛车界一听说他的侄子对贴纸的愿望,这个词就迅速社交媒体上传播。
Strangers showed up with a monster truck to help celebrate his birthday, and on Saturday, he got to race around Southern Iowa Speedway in a special surprise. A car show benefit is also planned for this upcoming weekend.
有陌生人带着一辆怪物的卡车来给他庆祝生日,本周末还有车展福利提供。
"We're just trying to get some racing in and trying to do everything we can to keep the spirit up," Playle told the Register. "The support and everything, all the cards he's receiving in the mail, it's been overwhelming."
“我们只是在努力争取一些比赛来支持他的精神,”普莱尔告诉记者,“哈蒙德收到了很多支持的邮件。”
Stickers can be sent to Hammond at 314 North J Street, Oskaloosa, IA 52577. A GoFundMe page has helped the family cover expenses.
