Ava

Ava was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at 2 years old.

Before diagnosis, life was a blessing for Ava and her family. Since then, the family describes life as if it is standing still and trouble breathing. They always feel like they are waiting to see how Ava responds to treatment and a sinking feeling the doctor won’t have good news for them. Despite these feelings, Ava continues to bring laughter as they search for other options to battle her disease.
