Town In Utah Celebrates Halloween Early For Little Boy Battling Leukemia [VIDEO]

Meet four-year-old Ethan Van Leuven. He has cancer and doesn't have many days left to live. Knowing that, one community in Utah has started Halloween and Christmas celebrations early so that little Ethan can experience it one more time.

The fine folks in West Jordan, Utah, just south of Salt Lake City, have started their holiday celebrations a bit early this year so that the four-year-old could experience the fun one more time. Little Ethan was diagnosed with leukemia in 2011, and now doctors say that the end is near.

Last Tuesday, the town celebrated Halloween a week-and-a-half early, so Ethan could go trick-or-treating as Superman.  Then on Thursday, they had a parade to celebrate his fifth birthday, which is next month.  And this past weekend, they celebrated CHRISTMAS.

A radio station in West Jordan played nothing but Christmas music last Friday for three hours, and neighbors created a winter wonderland for Ethan. Plus, more than 150 people sang carols in Ethan's front yard.  Then Saturday morning, he got to open all his presents.

To echo what his mother says here, this truly proves that there still are good people out there. What a true Super Hero little Ethan really is.
