Izzy was given less than 20% 5yr survival rate 💔

Auckland

Our beautiful 10 year old has been battling an aggressive rare form of soft tissue cancer called Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma it affects roughly 4 kids a year in New Zealand.

Izzy’s cancer is metastatic which means it’s travelled throughout her body and is being treated aggressively. This stage 4 diagnosis has given Izzy a less than 20% chance of surviving 5 years ♥️. Hearing that news broke our hearts, we couldn’t imagine life without our beautiful girl.

In the last 2 months Izzy has already had multiple hospital admissions, procedures and surgeries including countless rounds of chemo, MRI, PET-CT, ultrasounds, Chemo Port placement, blood transfusions, ovarian egg retrieval, multiple NG tubes inserted, X-rays and endless amounts of Iv lines.

This is our chance to help izzy dream big and achieve all things big and small, while she is still well enough ♥️

Despite her low prognosis Izzy is still a ray of light, she never fails to smile and put others first. She has such a big heart and we are so proud of her 💛
