Kaisa was diagnosed with cancer on April 22, 2024. Her journey began with a stiff neck that lasted for months. At first, doctors said it was just a crook in her neck. But after a CAT scan, they discovered an abnormality in her lower brain, and everything changed.
Because of her port, Kaisa cannot participate in rough play, but otherwise she continues to push forward with incredible strength.
She has already been through 13 rounds of radiation, three surgeries to place a shunt, a port, and an EVD. These treatments have been tough, and her family has faced many struggles along the way. The hardest part has been the constant worry. Life has changed drastically, and everyone’s focus is on making sure Kaisa is okay.
Through it all, her personality shines. Kaisa is silly, smart, and loves spending time outside with her family. Her biggest joy is being with her brother, who makes her laugh and brings her comfort during the hardest days.
