Lilah has an easy smile, bold curiosity, and a way of striding into a room like she already owns it. She loves donuts and coffee, powers through appointments while clutching pizza, and greets each morning as if the world is hers to conquer. Sweet, silly, and fiercely mighty, Lilah lights up every space she enters.On February 24, 2025 — the same day her brother William was born — Lilah had a seizure at home. Doctors discovered a mass in her brain: a diagnosis of atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), a rare and aggressive childhood cancer. A week later she underwent surgery to remove the tumor. Treatment began immediately: five rounds of chemotherapy (including high-dose chemo with stem-cell rescue) and six weeks of proton radiation.Despite everything, Lilah has met each challenge with strength far beyond her years. She danced daily during hospitalization, tolerated grueling treatments, and celebrated her second birthday amid chemotherapy rounds. In mid-December, she underwent scans. The results brought hope: there is no evidence of disease. Even more encouraging, Lilah's spine MRI is completely clear. Through long weeks away from home and many sacrifices from her family, Lilah has remained strong, sassy, joyful, and unstoppable.“In quiet moments,” Katelynn, Lilah’s mom, shares, “I pray — let me see the beautiful woman I know she will become.” Small but mighty, Lilah shows all of us what courage truly looks like.
