About This Activity
Angel was diagnosed in December 2014 with stage 4 Wilms Tumor which is a type of childhood kidney cancer.
The first two weeks were very touch and go as she battled heart failure and the cancer. The tumor after obliterating the right kidney grew into the major vein that leads back into the heart and all the way up into the right side of her heart. That was what was causing the heart failure.
Angel travels to St.Louis for Chemo Therapy. She has 6 treatments left before reassessment. The proceeds from the 5k will go to help towards her medical treatments and travel expenses.
