In this Jan. 14, 2020, photo, Michael Carr of Bloomingdale, who was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age 7 and underwent surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and other treatment before he could ring the End of Chemo bell as a healthy kid, poses.. Now, his tumor is back and the 11-year-old boy is determined to climb 1,643 steps as part of Aon's Step Up for Kids fundraiser to support families at Lurie Children's Hospital. He often takes off his shirt and flexes for both family and friends and staff at the hospital because shirts would bother the port on his upper chest. (Rick West/Daily Herald via AP)
