‘A Taste of Heaven’
While undergoing chemotherapy and radiation, 8-year-old Christopher Riley hardly wanted to eat anything. So when he would ask his aunt Rhonda Riley, Fairmont General 3B ward secretary, for a special dessert. She made it gladly.
She remembers baking things like a pistachio dessert or fudge.
“What he really liked was my peanut butter fudge,” Riley said. “And when you have a child taking chemotherapy and radiation, you’ll give them anything. And just a little piece of candy just meant the world to him.
“You do anything, you give them anything they want ... because to tolerate food is unbearable.”
