Kamryn's Story

written by Salina

Kamryn was born May 18, 2000 and was a happy and healthy baby girl! She potty trained early, by 21 mo. old she was done! One morning after going potty I was putting her panties back on her and I felt a lump on her right side. We took her to urgent care the next morning for them to do ultrasounds and x rays to find out what was wrong. A few hours later we were told to pack up and head 3 1/2 hours away to a childrens hospital in Phoenix, Az. It was confirmed there that Kamryn had Stage IV Favorable Histology Wilm's Tumor with Metasteses to her lungs. She had 3 surgeries, one removing her entire right kidney, 2 weeks of radiation and 24 weeks of 3 drug combination chemotherapy.

Kamryn is now 14 mo. off treatment and just had clear scans in June. She is doing ballet class and also is on a T-Ball team and just really enjoying life to the fullest!  We are loving watching her do the things we didn't know if she would be alive to do!
