KAELYN<br />

Age 20 months | Choroid Plexus Carcinoma<br />

<strong>Little</strong> <strong>Warrior</strong> Kaelyn was diagnosed with a brain tumor, Choroid<br />

Plexus Carcinoma, at just 4 months old. The tumor was surgically<br />

removed during an 11 hour surgery. Kaelyn received 6 months of<br />

chemotherapy at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, TN.<br />

Kaelyn is now 9 months post-treatment and currently NED (no<br />

evidence of disease)! She currently has an MRI and lumbar puncture<br />

every 3 months to monitor her status.<br />

Now 20 months old, Kaelyn took her first steps a few weeks ago, is<br />

working on talking, eating food by mouth, and just being a regular<br />

toddler!<br />
