Meet Brielle

Brielle had her last round of chemo in May 2012! She was diagnosed at 11 months old with stage 5 Wilms tumor. She had to have both kidneys removed. She was on hemodialysis 4 times a week for a four hours a day the first couple months we had her but in September we started peritoneal dialysis (dialysis at home!) She currently has dialysis every night while she sleeps but is doing well health wise she will be eligible for a transplant after being cancer free or two years. She came to us as a foster child in June 2012 and we became her legal guardians on January 23, 2013.
