ISABEL<br />

Age 3 | Spinal Cord Tumor<br />

Little Warrior Isabel, also know as Izzy Warrior Princess, was<br />

diagnosed with a spinal cord tumor shortly before her first<br />

birthday. Because the tumor could not be safely removed, Isabel<br />

underwent 42 rounds of chemo over 14 months.<br />

Recently, a year after her life-saving transfusion and 10 months<br />

since her last chemo infusion, Isabel had her regular check up<br />

at clinic. Her oncologist (and everyone) is so pleased with how<br />

she’s doing and said the tumor looks stable! She will continue to<br />

be monitored and have scans and just had her first chemo-free<br />

Christmas!<br />

Isabel is a fighter and works hard everyday to get better. She<br />

loves music and wants to play hockey when she is able!<br />
