In the world of color crayons, art comes naturally to children. Maddox Johnson is a seven-year-old boy who, like most children, likes to draw, color, and paint pictures. Simple pictures, whimsical pictures, colorful pictures of people, places, flowers, stars and sunrises. For most parents, it is refrigerator art, to be displayed with great honor, and then saved as family treasures, long after children have put away their crayons and paints. Maddox is putting his childhood art on eBay, to try to help his parents pay for his medical bills.

A year ago, Maddox was diagnosed with non-hodgkins T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. His treatments will last a total of 108 weeks, and he has to be hospitalized from time to time, once for an entire month. Micky and Tenille Johnson, his parents, who are ministers, have health insurance, but it does not cover all of his medical expenses. At one point, the Johnson family had a meeting, to brainstorm creative ideas for raising money to help with medical expenses that continue to mount, currently in excess of $10,000 dollars, and decided to put Maddox's art on eBay. Last October, people from Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky bid on a Maddox Johnson original. Maddox's school teacher made a successful bid to own one of his works of art. Maddox's art is on eBay again.

Maddox Johnson is quoted on his website as saying, "I pray every day. Most days several times a day and know that God is going to get all the Glory from this!! If you are reading this say a prayer for me today!" The photo is Maddox arm-wrestling his physician. Maddox is winning.
