Sophia's Story
Imagine hearing the words, “your child has cancer.” If you’re like us, you would believe those to be the worst possible words to hear as parents. Turned out, the words, “we’re out of options” hurt a hell of lot more.
On April 6th 2016, our beautiful, then 5-year old daughter, Sophia, was diagnosed with the most common and curable form of pediatric cancer, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, or ALL. We were told Sophia was considered standard risk and that remission rates were greater than 90%. All we had to do was get her through the three- year treatment protocol. It sounded so straight-forward. Simple compared to the initial shock of the diagnosis.
