Michael's Meanies Giving Children With Cancer a Way To Give it Back To Their Sickness Hello, I'm Michael Carroll from Wheeling West Virginia.

In 2003 I was diagnosed with Leukemia. After 3 years of treatments life returned to normal. On June 17th 2013 I was diagnosed with a Glioblastoma Grade IV Brain Tumor due to the radiation treatment I received for Leukemia. Once I got home from the hospital I came up with the idea of the "3 Meanies" based upon the 3 different types of childhood cancer. Terry "The Terrible" Tumor
He is for children

that have a tumor


Lily Lymphoma
She is for children that was diagnosed with Lymphoma

"Lousy" Louie Leukemia
He is for the child that has Leukemia


"I wanted to give something to the kids that they could take their anger out on. I thought of making these into a stress ball like toy that the kids can squeeze hard, punch or even throw them. My ultimate goal is for every child diagnosed with cancer to get one during their treatment".

The "Meanies" are not a soft stuffed cuddly toy or a beanie baby. They are exactly what Michael intended them to be, a stress toy that's made to be squeezed or thrown. The "Meanies" are 100% polyurethane, and latex free.

I can’t believe it was 29 years ago today that you came into our lives. I can remember it as clear as day. Nervous and excited to finally meet you and start on our journey as your mom and dad. We had no idea what adventures would lay ahead. We traveled by car, boat, plane and train. We traveled north, south, east and west covering a lot territory. How lucky we were to share so many memories with you in the short time we had together.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL!
