Juliette loves stuffed animals; they seemed to comfort her when getting evaluated. She’s always loved playing with her sister and running around everywhere.
Juliette was admitted on October 31st, 2022 with what we were told was a tumor on the back of her brain (Posterior Fossa Tumor). Leading up to the diagnosis she had been drowsy, not eating or drinking, and couldn’t walk properly. Everyone thought it was a virus because she had thrown up a few times as well, but the walking part did not make sense, so a CT scan was ordered, revealing the mass.
Juliette will begin radiation in a few weeks and will begin chemotherapy a month after the radiation is finished.
Cancer has changed our lives in many ways, particularly for our other daughter, Juliette’s twin Adela. It seems odd to have identical twins when one is fighting cancer. It is important to us to document this time when our lives were altered so much but also to highlight our family’s joy and faith through the struggle.
