As former patients, they share their inspiring journeys of resilience, recovery and renewed hope while raising funds for advanced technology that helps other patients return to the activities and people they love.
Trent’s Story: From Recovery to Running Again
In May 2024, Trent was diagnosed with brain cancer. After spending time in the hospital undergoing treatment and facing complications, he arrived at Madonna facing the challenge of relearning basic skills, including eating, walking and talking.
He had a long road ahead, but Madonna played a significant role in his recovery. With encouragement from his care team, Trent celebrated each milestone, rebuilt his confidence and made remarkable progress.
After returning home in May 2025, Trent has continued to work hard and make incredible progress. He has gone from having to relearn how to walk to being able to walk and run again. He even participated in the Head for the Cure 5K and completed the majority of it on his own.
In May 2026, Trent graduated high school, and his most recent scans have shown no signs of his cancer returning.
Madonna will always hold a very special place in our hearts. The people there became an important part of Trent’s recovery and helped him get to where he is today. We are incredibly grateful to Madonna for giving so much to Trent and our family during one of the hardest times in our lives. - Deb Burton, Trent's mom
Together, We Can Make More Possible
Every patient’s recovery journey is unique. Advanced rehabilitation technology can help open doors to new possibilities. This year, Madonna Miracle Night Ambassadors are raising funds for Burt®, a robotic therapy device that helps patients improve arm and upper-body movement.
