It was natural for a mom in South Carolina who loves singing and playing the piano to be attracted to a piano sitting at the hospital when she took her son for a doctor’s appointment. However, she didn’t expect that her impromptu performance would lead her to raise awareness of her son’s condition.

In April 2018, Abigail Tanner, a mother of three, from Pendleton, took her 1-year-old son, Lincoln, to the Duke Cancer Institute in South Carolina for an appointment with a neurology specialist.
