For those of you who don't know me, I'm 9 years old now, I'm on chemo again for the 4th time in my life and it's not easy.I have bilateral optic gliomas, and a hypothalamic/chiasm Optic Glioma too. All three brain tumors are inoperable. I'm dancing to raise money for research!! I hope and pray for a cure for not only pediatric brain tumors, but for all childhood cancers. 

I'm asking YOU to HELP ME raise $20,000

Won't you PLEASE support the research at my hospital? Lurie Children's isn't just helping kids here in IL, they are helping kids around the world.

It's because of people like you, helping kids like me, who are helping to give me options to live a longer life right now.

I hope I can count on you to fight along side me,

as hard as I fight everyday.

 I am so grateful for the blessings you are giving.

Thank you for the gift of life!

Thank you for helping to support important research;

I'm praying for a cure!
