    • A Boy Who Shares His Birthday For Others
      (The Chatsworth Times)

      Hayden Bullington lives in Chatsworth, Georgia.

      He was born with cystic fibrosis - and tomorrow, he turns 15 years old.

      His family says he’s able to lead a fairly normal life - because of a regimen of checkups, tests, chest therapies, breathing treatments and daily medications.

       

      Hayden says he is blessed by how fortunate he is - and he’s concerned about others who struggle to pay for their medications.

       

      So tomorrow, from 11 AM to 2 PM at Carlton’s Pharmacy in Chatsworth, Hayden will celebrate his birthday - sharing cake with all who stop by and donate to a special fund at the pharmacy that helps some of its customers who cannot afford their own prescriptions...

       

      Hayden’s family brought him by “Scenic Roots”...
