Ryans Story Ryan has PNET Primitive Neuro Ectodermal Tumor which is in the Ewings Sarcoma family of tumors.    Ryan has had cancer 3 times.  He was initially diagnosed in 1995 with ALL (Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia) at the age of 3 1/2.

In August of 2003, Ryan had the PNET reoccur in his right lung.  We have been doing chemotherapy for 4 months.  Our plan is to do chemotherapy and possible radiation and then, hopefully, surgery.  Once the tumors are gone we may do a stem cell transplant.
