In the spring of 2018, Eliana was complaining of leg/hip pain and by the end of the day, she was limping. We knew we had to act quickly and rushed her to the ER. That night she was diagnosed with transient synovitis. We followed up with her primary care physician who was in contact with orthopedics and ordered lab work. Lab work showed high levels of inflammation and we needed to admit Eliana for further testing.
Once at the hospital Eliana’s condition improved significantly. She stopped limping and we were discharged after 3 days at the hospital. Two days later we received the call that changed our lives forever. The pathologist took a look at her lab work and found a blast, an abnormal cell. Eliana had to be admitted once again and start chemotherapy immediately.
