Our thoughts and prayers are with the Sims family. Trevor was an insightful boy whose kind spirit will live on forever.
According to the ABC News:
Trevor Sims, 11, died of rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare cancer that develops in the soft tissue and often strikes children, according to ABC News affiliate WBRZ in Baton Rouge, La. Trevor, of Baton Rouge, La., was first diagnosed at age 5.
Trevor wanted to start the food drive, after experiencing what it was like to be left hungry. He told WBRZ after he initially was diagnosed, his mother was unable to buy food.
“When I was diagnosed my mom…didn’t have any money to get food and we were starving for two or three days in a row,” Trevor said. “She couldn’t get a job because she had to take care of me. I don’t want anyone to feel that way,” he said.
