Sofia was diagnosed with ALL on June 18, 2020. She started with a fever that would break with medicine but kept coming back for seven days. She got more and more tired as the days progressed and eventually became pale and had petechia inside her lips.
Sofia has been receiving chemotherapy from the beginning. We are at the last stage of treatment (maintenance) where most of her medicine is taken at home. She gets Lumbar punctures and chemo in the clinic every three months. Right after said procedures is when Sofia complains about leg pain the most because of one of the chemo meds. For a week following her procedure, she gets irritated easily and cries a lot for everything.
This cancer diagnosis has definitely changed our life!
