The last doctor they saw took notice of the lump on her next coupled with the lazy eye and decided it might be a tumor. They found themselves in Women's and Children's hospital just days later prepping to have the tumor removed. She was then diagnosed with neuroblastoma at only 8 months old. When they found the tumor it was the size of an egg. It was successfully removed and all traces of it were gone with chemo and radiation. She has been cancer free for 12 years now!

Neuroblastoma has a 90% success rate if you catch it before one year of age, but if not visible it's hard to diagnose. Some symptoms are  Now I need your help! Will you make a donation? Childhood cancer research is grossly underfunded. Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers.
