The image of an 8-year-old boy hugging his mother has traveled the world, the reason is shocking.

The image of an 8-year-old boy hugging his mother has traveled the world, the reason is shocking.

Lori Wright lives in Queensland and has been battling breast cancer for three years. Her son, Tristan, was always right next to her, and he saw all her torment and all her pain. The mother has so far raised her child on her own and says her recent treatments have ruined her.

The woman has stage 4 cancer, with metastases, and her son Tristan tries to alleviate her pain as much as he can, being with her. To help her pay for her treatment, a humanitarian fundraising page was set up on her behalf, which reads: “Please help Tristan keep his mother alive.” We wish you both success and good health for this heroine mother!
