GRAYSON, Ky (WSAZ) -The community of Grayson, Kentucky came out Sunday evening to create a prayer tunnel for Tyler Bush. They lined the street to wish the fifth grader well as he battles Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

Recently Tyler got honored as a WSAZ Hometown Hero for raising money for children battling cancer. At the time he didn't know he would have a similar battle.

Mark Strother is a parent and brought his kids with him to this rally.
"Were just wishing that everything is successful in his treatments and he can go back to playing ball with these guys. I think its going to make him feel fantastic. I know he's going through a tough time and he needs all the support he can get"

The problem is this little fellar shouldn't be having to go through this !!!! If money wasn't more important than our kids to certain rich chemical companies , this boy would not be in this mess !! It is a shame because everyone writes about how supportive they are but no one will come together to do something about it !! Nothing can be done by a few people standing alone , however thousands could have an impact & in the end change it all for are health and that of the children ! Listen people these chemical plants around here are the ones doing this . Our children get sick & die , while they get richer and go on vacation ! See they don't care because thier kids don't live here !!!!
