Bella is 8 years old. She has two younger sisters, Viviana age 7 and Siena age 4. We brought Bella to the doctor in late July 2017 for what we thought was a lower back injury from gymnastics. On July 28, 2017 she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, Stage 4 cancer. It is even hard for me to put this down in words, so I am going to leave the story there. We began our war against cancer on August 7, 2017, when Bella began her chemotherapy treatments. We are a family of deep Catholic faith. We know that we must go through this for a reason unknown to us for now, but embrace this journey as it is the one that God has given us. With all of your support, we go forth in the battle for Bella. We thank all of you for your prayers, continues prayers and ask you to stay with us as we go onward.
