Moorse was diagnosed with a Wilms Tumor on his left kidney in 2021. Doctors moved immediately to surgically remove it and then Clayton went through 34 rounds of chemotherapy and six rounds of radiation. He rang the "cancer free" bell in July of 2022 at Children's Medical Center.
When asked his treatment, Clayton recalled only happy memories. "At Children’s there was some candy every Saturday. My dad brought me donuts and there were Popsicles and these squirt things," he said with a smile.
Clayton is one of 20 cancer warriors chosen to walk the stage at the Children's Cancer fund gala. In year's past, football stars, Cinderella, firefighters, SWAT officers and superheroes have walked the stage to celebrate these kids.
