Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor 10-year- old Liam Lynch of western New York. Liam was first diagnosed with lymphoma in 2019 and, thanks to the expert care through Roswell Park/Oishei Children's Hospital partnership, he went into remission. Unfortunately, Liam relapsed, but he is a tough, determined kid, and we support his efforts to succeed. With the support of Liam's family and his community, he has donated more than 2,300 pairs of pajamas to other patients at the hospital where he is seeking care. Liam's enduring positivity through chemotherapy, radiation, and months in the hospital has been recognized by the Buffalo Bills, including its star quarterback Josh Allen, along with the many people across the western New York community. Liam Lynch truly embodies the spirit of the City of Good Neighbors. I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Liam Lynch and his family as he bravely continues his battle to beat lymphoma for good. ____________________
