PHOTOS: 'Wear Yellow for Seth,' a 5-year-old with an immune disorder

Thursday, March 26, 2015
Seth, a 5-year-old with an immune disorder, went viral when he asked everyone to wear yellow to support him. His mom says Seth's attitude helps them get through it.
Seth's mom, Leanne, chronicles Seth's journey on their family blog.
Seth developed a graft disease after his unsuccesful marrow transplant in 2010, one of the many complications to the 5-year-old's health.
Seth has a baby brother, Hugo. There are times when Hugo is not allowed in to see Seth because of his condition.
When Seth and Hugo are separated, they can see each other through video chats, his mom writes.
Seth hangs his school and art work on the wall of his room.
Seth loves to dress up as a super hero and make his mom pretend to be the villain while he saves the city, she said.
Lane says her son is happy, easy-going and cheeky. ''He's a character,'' she said.
