CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - All these kids are well aware of what cancer can do to a child. They're wearing these shirts to help fight the nasty disease.
"Cancer Messed With ____" is a slogan for t-shirts, onsies and hats. You fill in the blank. I have one that says, "Cancer Messed With the wrong mom." I've seen Carolina Panthers players wearing "Cancer Messed With the wrong team." DeAngelo Williams just ordered hundreds of "Cancer Messed With the wrong warrior" for his Foundation.
The slogan can apply to any cancer, but shirt sales benefit pediatric cancer research for neuroblastoma. It's a grand idea of the always-creative Charlotte-based The Isabella Santos Foundation.
AND... AWESOMELY...
The "Cancer Messed With" crew is sending a shirt to each of our #MollysKids this September. Every child this month. All of you. A shirt mailed to your doorstep.
Jace Thompson and Tristan Blanton -- the boys from this past weekend? Already in the mail. Courtesy of "Cancer Messed With". We'd love to see a picture once you get them.

Thank you, guys. Working together, always.
