On October 14, 2015 Chris's daughter Ariya, at 4 years old, was diagnosed with Stage IV kidney cancer. On that day not only was a diagnosis given but a battle begun and the entire family's life was turned upside down. Life is never certain but no one expects to be told that their daughter, who hasn't even started kindergarten, has stage IV cancer. These series of episodes are tragic, sad, hopeless and hopeful but ultimately inspirational. Hear from a Father's perspective how he stood by his daughters side during this battle that should have never had to be fought.
