My Story

Stephanie was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, stage IV in August 2010. She fought the battle of her life, completing 14 rounds of chemo, two high dose chemo with stem cell rescues and 25 days of radiation along with all the surgeries, blood work, fevers, etc. that go along with this difficult, aggressive treatment. Scans were conducted in December 2011 following completion of the treatment road maps. Thankfully, the scans showed NED. Unfortunately, remission was short-lived and Stephanie's cancer returned only a few short months later. After fighting this terrible disease three times, Stephanie passed away on November 20, 2013. She was hoping and praying that we could find a cure in time. Although the cure was not found in time for her life to be saved, she would still ask that everyone donate whatever they can to help St. Baldricks"Conquer Kids Cancer" !!!
