Gabriel Polston

"Gabriel was diagnosed with the disease in January of 2015 and has been under the care of doctors at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital since August of last year. The Polston family home is in Fulton, Missouri, so obtaining the treatment he needs has meant living out of suitcases and sleeping on makeshift hospital beds. During the course of treatment, Gabriel had a bone marrow transplant, requiring him to live close to Cardinal Glennon for at least 100 days in case of complications. So his mom and he moved into a temporary Ronald McDonald House apartment near the hospital. Meanwhile, his dad, Jeremy, stays behind to work, traveling 100 miles each weekend to be with his wife and child." ~ Town & Style, St. Louis, By: Alexa Beattie, October 10, 2016 [link below]


"Gabriel William Polston, 5, of Fulton was freed from his pain and called home to his Heavenly Father on Monday, January 8, 2018 after a lengthy and valiant battle against cancer." ~ Maupin Funeral Home
