Welcome to another fantastic pay it forward story on this site. A seven year old New York City resident named Aryn Diggs who has beaten cancer named Aryn Diggs is doing her part to give back to children in her hometown who are in need of some cheering up by receiving socks. Aryn who has battled cancer since she was two years of age with the assistance of her mother Marissa Jacobs has written a book that they hope will inspire other children who are facing health challenges that they can with a little help from heir family and friends beat the illness and go on to live long lives. I admire someone who survived cancer after having many surgeries and chemotherapy and is using her survival experience to assist others in need.

@Deepizzaguy Thanks for explaining. I suppose socks are important part of the get-up, one people often forget.

That's great! So, she makes or buys socks and gives them as gifts to needy children?

@Deepizzaguy So she is in remission. That is so nice how she wants to give back to her hometown. That is great that her mother wrote a book. I also admire anyone that has gone into remission and is still in it.

Another great and heartwarming story. I guess if one can offer a smidgen of hope, that's still worth something.

You have to admire the fortitude to not only fight a dreadful illness, so young, but to help others facing similar issues
