Auston Sperling
As
some of you know, Auston Sperling, a student at Lincoln Elementary, has been in a battle with brain cancer and is cancer free
right now. Two weeks ago, St. Jude Hospital asked that he fly with his
family to New York to film a special segment for the Today Show for St. Jude’s
Giving Thanks campaign. Auston and his family had a great time in New York, visiting all the sights
and filming the segment. While in New York, they asked his family
to go to Nashville to do more filming (more of an individual segment).
A few days ago, Auston's mother, Jill, got a phone call and now Auston has even more
exciting news!! Auston and his mom are flying back to New York on
Monday! He will be ringing the bell at the Wall Street closing on
Tuesday, he will be at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, and LIVE on the
TODAY SHOW on the Friday morning after Thanksgiving!!! Auston is a great kid and always has a
great attitude!
Here are some pictures of the family's visit to New York:
