A Secret Santa steps in for couple with baby battling brain tumors

#eastidahonews #secretsanta #christmas AMMON — A local Secret Santa is spreading holiday cheer across eastern Idaho, giving away $1 million to people who deserve a little extra magic this Christmas. Amber and her husband are currently going through a frightening ordeal with their son. He was born in April and has been in and out of doctors' appointments several times a week. In July, they found he had fluid in his brain and was flown from EIRMC to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, where they did an MRI and found tumors in his brain. He has since been diagnosed with Pilomyxoid Astrocytoma and is currently at home on oxygen and a feeding tube. The family now has in-home nurses to help twice a week but they are still having to travel to Utah for chemo treatments. Amber and her husband have been so positive and resilient throughout this whole thing. Secret Santa asked the East Idaho News elves to go and surprise Amber.
