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.

Love and Gratitude by the Heartful





How beautiful a day can be
When kindness touches it!
~George Elliston

My heart is so full of gratitude for the kindness of others!
I am so thankful for the kind-hearted nurses and doctors who have decided to make helping others their life's work.
I am thankful too for the many things both large and small that friends, family, neighbors and even strangers have done to help make this all bearable.
