Katherine is a 12 year old from Santa Fe Springs, CA. Having cancer has made Katherine more assertive and brave, overall. She does not shy away if nurses are "not doing it right" when accessing the port in her chest or drawing blood, or informing me and the doctor when she is in pain. She is definitely a brave warrior!

Katherine’s journey started when she started to have flu-like symptoms (fevers, body aches, fatigue), as well as severe leg pain, pale skin and night sweats. She was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

During her first diagnosis, almost 90% of her body was filled with Leukemia cells in only a short two-week span. She went through intense chemo for two years and rang the survivor bell in April 2019. After one year off chemo, ironically on her "Survivor Clinic Visit," she relapsed, routine bloodwork showed Leukemia cells in her blood. Katherine is currently in the Maintenance phase of relapse chemo. She is currently taking chemo pills nightly, Bactrim on weekends, and IV chemo biweekly.
