Long Island teen cancer survivor organizes Lego drive to support young patients

A Long Island teen, Reese Gallinaro, who survived leukemia twice, is helping other young cancer patients by organizing a Lego drive. She has collected hundreds of donated Lego sets to bring joy and motivation to children in treatment. Gallinaro, now 16, found comfort in Lego during her own battles with cancer. She spent significant time in isolation and built many sets, which helped her cope with the challenges of treatment. The Lego drive, which has received strong community support, is collecting donations at various local sites. The deadline for contributions has been extended due to high demand, with a focus on providing Lego flower bouquets for children in hospitals.
