Molly

Leukemia Survivor

Omaha, NE

  • Print

"When Molly was 5, she developed a lump and a rash around her nose and hands. We took her to a dermatologist who tested Molly's blood. We found out that she had blasts in her blood and got her to the hospital. Molly was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

Chemotherapy started the next day and after 28 days, Molly was in remission. Through hair loss, frequent weight changes and hospital stays, Molly faced the battle with positivity, humor and strength.

Molly was also the 2015 Light The Night Honored Hero for Nebraska Walks in Omaha and Lincoln. Being quite shy at the Lincoln Walk, Molly warmed up after she realized that she was going to get to lead a huge "parade" in her honor. Molly walked with her whole family. We look forward to when she's 5 years cancer free!"

Elise & Chris, Molly's parents
