Tough LIttle Girl

Keira had surgery yesterday. They only had to scope her. They were not able to remove the whole tumor as it is attached to a nerve. They did take a biopsy, and we will know more how to progress once we receive the results of the biopsy. She (and her parents) had a long night, but she is feeling much better this morning. It looks like this will not be a long hospital stay. Thank you for your continued prayers. More later.

About Me

At the age of 10 months, Keira was diagnosed with stage IV neuroblastoma. She has completed 4 rounds of chemotherapy and 2 surgeries. She has had a wonderful response to therapy and now has only a small mass left in her chest.
