Journal entry by Kari ABUBAKKER —
Hello everyone,
Thanks for visiting Zyan's web page. As many of you know, Zyan is the sweetest 19 month old you would ever meet. However, we had a setback in March of 2019- When he was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor called a Wilms Tumor. Fortunately, it was surgically removed and all was well and we continued to watch Zyan through follow up appointments at children's national.
Unfortunately 12/9/2019, his chest xray, ct scan, and PET scan confirmed metastasis to the right lung. Unfortunately, a biopsy could not be done due to high risk for lung collapse. Zyan has begun chemotherapy and will begin radiation shortly.
I have created this site so that the many people who wish to be updated on Zyan can come here and recieve the latest update. I will try my best to give you all updates weekly.
