Meet Lincoln | Lincoln had a fairly normal first year of life, until he got a stubborn infection in his eye which led to a diagnosis of neutropenia. Despite the initial diagnosis, Lincoln was also struggling to gain weight and experienced consistent ear infections. Eventually, Lincoln was diagnosed with Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome, a condition that affects many parts of the body and prevents the bone marrow from making some or all types of white blood cells. His treatment required 3 shots per week and annual bone marrow biopsies. Lincoln is a lively 10-year-old who wants to help other kids facing medical challenges. On August 26, CBS 8 and Rady Children’s held a Working Fur Kids Give-A-Thon, encouraging donations from the community in an effort to raise funds for the Rady Children's Resident Professional Canine Therapy program. The program will help ease the pain and suffering of children who are patients at Rady Children’s Hospital, California’s largest non-profit children’s hospital.
