Alyssa’s Story

Site created on March 13, 2006

On August 22nd, 2005 our 4 year old daughter Alyssa was diagnosed with stage 3 Neuroblastoma, a form of pediatric cancer. To say the least, it was a day that changed our lives forever. It has been a road of adversity, but one that we have not had to travel alone. Please join Alyssa's Army and help us win the war against pediatric cancer.
