My 7 year old grand daughter Laura has just relapsed with Neuroblastoma Cancer. She has been NED (no evidence of disease) since 2-08. She will turn 8 on 4-11-2011. We are heartbroken. I would like to ask for prayers as she begins chemo again this Monday. It will be another tough fight.
 
OH NO Carolyn. I will definately pray for her. My heart just broke for your family. As we have discussed in the past..this is a horrible horrible disease. I will also put her on our prayer chain at church.
 
I just sent it out to my Prayer list. I have known of 2 kids w/that awful disease - and my soon-to-be 8-year-old's best friend was also born on 4/11/03...Love & Prayers
 
So sorry to hear of the relapse. My prayers go out to your granddaughter and her family.
 
Praying for you and your family...If she has a Caring Bridge or Care Pages (or the like), and you feel comfortable sharing it, please do!

I wanted to give everyone an update on Laura. She has been inpatient since Monday receiving high dose chemotherapy. The staff has worked to get a good balance with anti nausea meds and pain medications. Mornings have been rough, but afternoons are better. We can feel all our prayer support around us.

This is the update on my grand daughter Laura from Trisha: Good news: No New Spots. Bad News: Her tumor didn't respond at all to the high dose chemo. We are switching to radiation immediately. Appointment with the radiation oncologist on Monday.

Prayers continue.

With tears in my eyes, for this sweet baby I pray, God in Heaven, hold this child in your hands and make her strong and well again. Bring comfort, hope and strenght to who love her. Amen.

I wanted to send an update on my grand daughter Laura. She has completed high dose chemotherapy, several rounds of low dose chemo, and high dose radiation. Her tumor has shown improvement and she is now considered no evidence of disease. Because neuroblastoma is so aggressive, she will continue on low dose chemo and hopefully will participate in a new clinical trial in New York. Thank you for your prayers.

Thank you so much for the update! I pray that she continues to be NED!!

I know it has been awhile since I asked for prayers for my grand daugher Laura. She has relapsed once again with a tumor in her femur and in her neck. She travels from Michigan to NY for her treatments. This is another heartbreak for us. She is 9 now and really knows what this all means. She cried because she would lose the hair she has grown back. Please please keep her in your prayers and feel free to add her to any prayer list you know of. Thank you.

1. What is Neuroblastoma Cancer?

Neuroblastoma is a type of cancer that develops from immature nerve cells. It usually occurs in young children and can be found in various parts of the body, most commonly in the abdomen, chest, neck, or spinal cord.

2. What does it mean for a child to relapse with Neuroblastoma Cancer?

A relapse occurs when the cancer comes back after a period of remission. In this case, Laura had been in remission since 2008, but the cancer has returned and she will need to undergo treatment again.

3. How old is Laura and when did she first get diagnosed with cancer?

Laura is currently 7 years old and was first diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in 2008 when she was only 3 years old.

4. What is NED (no evidence of disease) and why is it significant?

NED means that there is no sign of cancer in the body. It is significant because it means that the treatment was successful in getting rid of all the cancer cells and the person is considered to be in remission.

5. How can we help and support Laura and her family during this difficult time?

The best way to help and support Laura and her family is to offer your thoughts and prayers for a successful treatment and quick recovery. You can also reach out to them with kind words, offer to help with daily tasks, or provide emotional support. Additionally, you can donate to cancer research or a charity that supports families affected by cancer in honor of Laura.
