MILFORD, Ohio -- Ever catch yourself singing by yourself in the the car or at home?

To a 2-year-old Milford boy, videos of people singing are more than just music: they're a show of support.

Parker Loudermilk is fighting cancer. He was diagnosed not long after his birth with Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma, which aggressively attacks soft tissues.

Loudermilk loves watching videos of people singing "Fight Song." He spends all day watching them. The quality of the singer doesn't matter, his dad said.

"When I see a lot of these videos, I don't really judge them like that," Derrick Loudermilk said. "I just look at what they're doing for our son, and it's incredible. I can't put into words what it means."

Parker's parents said the videos make him smile -- and they think they're making him fight harder.

"Little man's fighting up there, and he's not giving up," Derrick Loudermilk said. "We're not giving up, and it's definitely because of the prayers and support of everybody."
