Traditionally, we have a candlelight ceremony on the last night of each week of camp, but wanting to save the tears until the last week of camp, Magic and Zaga decided to do something a little different for the first week of camp. We watched a video called "My Last Days" about Zach Sobiech's journey. He was a young singer, songwriter, and musician who was diagnosed with cancer at age 14. He underwent 10 surgeries and 20 rounds of chemotherapy in the four years to come. In December 2012, he released an original song called "Clouds" about his battle with cancer...it was his of saying goodbye to everyone he loved before passing away at age 18. Zach's spirit and hope lives on through his music. His positive outlook on life is an inspiration to many. By the end of the video, many of us were in tears and this song still brings our CIT group together.
