Meet Fritz

Fritz has retinoblastoma, a rare type of eye cancer that usually affects children under the age of six. Most aren't even diagnosed until they are 1 or 2 years old, but this little fighter had a parent who had battled the same disease as a child so mom and dad knew there were hereditary risks and took proactive measures early on. Fritz was diagnosed in utero and received his first chemo treatment within his first week of life. He is now 10 months old and a bundle of joy. Images by: Tina Vega Photography
