In 2019, Colton was diagnosed with Leukemia and only a bone marrow transplant could offer him a second chance at life. Thanks to a generous donor, Colton has made a full recovery and recently received approval from his doctor to begin playing soccer! He is thankful for his donor, who he calls his hero.
At Nashville SC's Kick Childhood Cancer match, Colton was able to meet his hero for the very first time.
Kevin Koerner volunteered to become a donor while a student at the University of Delaware and was thrilled to have the opportunity to give a child a second chance at life. His gift gave Colton and his family the most precious gift anyone could give or receive!
