Young Buckeye fan names brain tumor ‘Michigan,’ beats it
By way of NBC4 in Columbus, 12-year-old OSU fan Grant Reed underwent his final chemotherapy session last Friday at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Upon being diagnosed with a brain tumor two years ago, Grant Reed, whose parents met when they were both members of Ohio State’s famed Best Damn Band in the Land, decided to give it the nickname of “Michigan.”
So, with the final chemo treatment in the book, the young man had, in essence, beat Michigan. Awesome.
“We’ve beaten Michigan for the short-term, but like any rival, there’s a chance it can come back,” the cancer survivor’s father, Troy Reed, told the television station.
The station went on to write that the doctors have stated the prognosis for Grant’s future is good.
