A Round Rock teen battling a rare form of cancer got a big surprise from one of his favorite music stars.

Texas country music star Kevin Fowler presented Clayton Dalton with a signed guitar Thursday night in Williamson County.

Dalton is battling Rhabdomyosarcoma, and dreams of one day becoming a law enforcement officer. Rhabdomyosarcoma is a cancer made up of cells that normally develop into skeletal muscles, according to American Cancer Society.

"He's just a really great kid and he's out there fighting the fight every day struggling with this thing," Fowler said. "I think Bobby wanted to do something special for him."

Fowler was referring to Williamson County Sheriff Robert Chody. Chody, who has a close relationship with Dalton, also presented him with a special gift Thursday night: An honorary Williamson County Sheriff's Office deputy badge.
