Thousands Of Facebook Users Are Sending Virtual Therapy Dogs To A Teen With Cancer Fun Love
Over half a million doggy photos have brightened 16-year-old Anthony Lyons’ days as he undergoes chemotherapy in Arizona.
Anthony Lyons is a 16-year-old from Phoenix, Arizona. He was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia last summer and has been undergoing chemotherapy at Phoenix Children's Hospital.
The best moments during Anthony's days in the hospital are when he gets visits from therapy dogs. But they aren't always available to drop in.
So Anthony's family friends set up a Facebook event last week called "Photo Doggies for Anthony" asking people to post their pooches' pictures to help the teen smile through his chemo sessions.
