A restaurant in Yonkers is holding a benefit to raise money for a young boy diagnosed with bone cancer.
Luke Gallagher is 11 years old and learning to walk again after his diagnosis of osteosarcoma. 
"He has had many rounds of chemo," says Luke's aunt, Fidelma Byrne. "He's had both legs reconstructed and he is now facing another 10 rounds of chemo."
Luke's family and friends organized a benefit hosted by Rory Dolan's in Yonkers to raise awareness about osteosarcoma and money to help pay for medical bills.
Luke's six siblings and countless friends have his back, and they say they're going to beat the cancer together.
