On January 5th, 2011, Lily was admitted to the Phoenix Children's Hospital because she was experiencing pain in her legs and back. A week later and after what felt like a million tests, scans and biopsies, we had a diagnosis: she has a soft tissue tumor called Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. A PET scan revealed a small tumor in her foot that was not apparent from the outside; it was not until the cancer had already spread to her bone marrow that she experienced any symptoms. This came as a total shock to everyone as Lily has always been healthy, active and full of energy. We love our darling girl and her sweet, happy, loving spirit. This website is for friends and family to stay connected during this difficult time.

Another Fundraiser!!

Our amazingly awesome friends Theresa and Victor are having a fundraiser for Lily on Saturday, April 16th.  The fun starts at 9 a.m. near Skyline Park at Coralbell Ave & 103rd place in Mesa.
There will be a barbeque with yummy food, inflatable jumpy thing for kids and a cornhole tournament. What (you may be asking) is a cornhole tournament?!? According to the ACA (American Cornhole Association, yes they have an association!) at www.playcornhole.org, cornhole is similar to horseshoes except that you use wooden boxes and corn bags instead of horseshoes and metal stakes.
If you have a facebook account, you can RSVP to the event here: http://www.facebook.com/?tid=1460536773186&sk=messages#!/event.php?eid=204084806269767
Thank you so much Theresa and Victor! And thanks to everyone who is helping with this event. We are truly blessed with wonderful friends and family J
