Max Cure KidsOn December 29th, 2011, Julie was diagnosed with Choroid Plexus Carcinoma, a very rare brain cancer. It is found in only 3% of all childhood brain cancers. Of those 3% only 10% of those children are older than 2 years old. Julie was 4 years old when she was diagnosed and the tumor on her brain was the size of a grape fruit. Doctors gave her a 20% chance of making it through surgery. After 6 months of 5 different strong chemo-therapies, 6 weeks of intense proton radiation, 20+ blood and platelet transfusions, countless nights in the hospitals and many many prayers, our Julie is in remission. Cancer couldn’t take the beautiful smile off her face. She is playing soccer and going to Pre-K and hasn’t slowed down a bit. She loves singing, playing house with her sister, and getting her nails done. She can’t wait to have long hair again.
