Ryan Wagner and his wife, Ashley Wagner, play with their son, Miles Wagner, 2, while at their Woodridge home Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2017. In December 2013 Ryan was diagnosed with with stage IV colon cancer that will ultimately be terminal. At two months his son, Miles, was diagnosed with a rare disease that requires him to have both a liver and kidney transplant. He received his donor liver about a year ago and is now getting ready for a kidney transplant.
