UNION, Ky. (WKRC) - A 17-year-old boy originally from Union, Kentucky is fighting against the greatest of odds. He's here in the Tri-State on Sunday night, getting ready to begin his treatment for cancer. Kayne was diagnosed with DIPG back in November. In December he started radiation treatment. Now, he's in the Cincinnati area to try something new to slow down the progression of that tumor. Greeted by some old friends, Kayne and his mother arrived at Lunken Airport. Kayne's father is a retired Kentucky state police trooper. The Finley's used to live in union but now reside in Florida. "It's also nice to have family and friends here. That way I can see them and not just be a stranger in the city,” said Kayne. While it is good to be back, it's bittersweet. Kayne is battling DIPG, an aggressive and inoperable brain tumor. "When I started radiation treatment, I could walk up the stairs by myself. Going step by step, but now I’m two-stepping it and kind of going faster. So it's nice to have that improvement,” said Kayne. Since his diagnosis, communities around the country have been rallying for the 17-year-old swimmer using the slogan, #CannonballsForKayne. "We've only been on Ormond Beach for three years and we love it down there, but I would have never expected the outpouring of support from the people we don't even know. They've taken us in as if we've been there all our lives." Students and student athletes in Florida are jumping into the pool in Kayne's name as a way to spread the word and collect donations because right now, there's relatively not a lot of money out there to fight DIPG. "It's like, how does this happen? There should be more money going towards pediatric cancer. Four percent of the money goes to pediatric cancer. Of that, less goes to brain cancer, even less to the DIPG. " But that won't stop the Finley's. They'll keep fighting. The Finley's are with family in the area. They'll be at the hospital to start that treatment Monday morning. After spending the next few days in Cincinnati, the family will go back to Florida for a #CannonballsForKayne fundraiser.
