I have a good friend who has a baby Xander's age. Xander and Reese have been friends for almost a year. They have taken Little Gym class together and we have weekly play dates with them. When Reese started at Little Gym she had just finished up with chemotherapy for Neuroblastoma. She had responded well to the treatment. In June she had a scan and was all clear of cancer. Her port was taken out and everyone was so relieved she made it through it all. She just had another follow up scan today and they found out the cancer is back and it is worse than before. She will now have to go through a very invasive surgery where they will collapse one of her lungs to remove the tumors and then will have to go back through chemotherapy.
We love this little girl so much and can't even imagine what they are going through right now. This is Eric and Kristina's first child and they have been on such a roller coaster since they discovered her cancer last year.
Please keep them in your prayers.

What a beautiful child! Please let her family know that our thoughts and prayers are with them.
She is a doll! I can not even imagine! Bless her heart! We will keep her in our prayers!
We are so sorry, that is so sad. We will definitely keep her in our prayers!
You can count on the Woodalls to add her to our prayer list!
She is adorable! I hate hearing these kind of stories. (Unfortunately I hear them all the time working at a children's hospital) I pray that everything goes well for her and her family!
Oh, the beauty of children. Reese is lovely. I will pray too!
That's just so sad, I'll be praying for her and her family. What a beautiful little girl.
That is just so sad. I'll be sending prayer on their behalf. What a beautiful little girl.
This is so heartbreaking. It just makes me so mad that parents and children are faced with this. She is so beautiful, so precious. I'll put their names in the temple tonight, along with our prayers. I feel like I would do ANYTHING to help her be healthy again.
