Ezra King is the 5-year-old son of a Woodstock police officer. He is fighting a brain tumor that was first diagnosed at 18-months-old. He recently began a more aggressive treatment plan to battle his cancer.

“We pray every day for a new drug to be developed that will shrink his brain tumor and put him on the cancer survivor list," Officer Travis King, Ezra's father, said. "As his tumor grows, he loses more functions and develops more issues. He teaches us every day how to be strong, how to persevere, and how to have fun doing it."
