EDIT: Luke's dad has provided a couple of really awesome pictures showing Luke in the finished armor. He also added a little insight into Luke's case:Both Luke and his older sister suffered from Leukemia. She was diagnosed with it when she was two and a half, him when he was 17. Both endured 2-years worth of chemotherapy.

Leukemia is what they call a "liquid tumor" disease. It's cancer, but not the type that grows a solid tumor. Instead, it effects the bone marrow where your blood is produced. Leukemia causes your bone marrow to produce unusable blood cells. So as a result you don't have hemoglobin to carry oxygen to your organs, no white blood cells to fight infections, and no platelets to heal injuries (think scabs, but also on the inside of your body.) So basically you will die if it's left untreated.

We are very lucky in that both of our children survived. Luke is honestly one the toughest people I know and endured such grueling hardship in those two years. I love that kid!

I sorely hope he makes it, at least to the next convention so he can show it off.

EDIT: Ah! I see he has one already. Neeevermind. :DComment by WindspielI thought Make - A -Wish was for children with cancer and other potentially terminal types of maladies?Comment by ChaxtonThe armor looks a bit...cheap? I mean, I'm happy for the guy that he got his wish to be Arthas, and I know Make-a-Wish won't buy a Ferrari for everyone, but I can't help but feel like the armor's quality is below standard for the ones who made it. I hope the photo is just bad and I'm wrong, but I really feel like they got cheap on his wish.

Best of luck in staying healthy, Luke. Keep fighting, and beat that sickness.Comment by ScaryfoxAw, that's so sweet!Comment by hashtagfredI thought Make - A -Wish was for children with cancer and other potentially terminal types of maladies?Comment by rivimattThe armor looks a bit...cheap?Comment by YortalI thought Make - A -Wish was for children with cancer and other potentially terminal types of maladies?Comment by Mork623Oh this young man is about to slay alright, let's hope he got some good pick up lines ready. ;)Comment by Dexstar09That is one hell of a costume!
