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.

Mama's Marvelous Organic Juice


With no chemo for the past week, Lily's appetite has been good. She will even let me juice for her, which makes me really happy.

Here's our favorite recipe which makes about one glass of juice:

1 Apple
1 Cup of carrots
1/2 Large beet or 1 small beet
1 Handful of greens (chard, spinach, kale)

I always buy organic produce, but lately I've been able to use our own organically grown apples and veggies from my garden :)


Fresh picked dinner!
