CHAMPAIGN -- A boy will stay in his childhood home thanks to your support.   Last month we told you about Samantha Toral and her son Ryan.  She is from St. Joseph but is currently living in a Chicago Suburb.  

    That home was facing foreclosure but a website was set up to keep that from happening.  People across the state donated money and helped spread the word.  Right before Christmas, Bank of America modified her loan.  It means Toral and her family will get to stay at their home for good.  The money donated will help pay her mortgage until May of this year.
