| Introduction | On February 11, 2009 our little Jessenia was diagnosed with Leukemia ALL (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia). Jessenia is 7 years old in second grade and is a very kind, smart, beautiful little girl and the best big sister anybody could ask for. She has a 4 year old little sister Isabela and a 2 year old little brother Sebastian. Jessenia has always been a healthy active little girl until recently and she enjoys reading, school, dance class, drawing, coloring and any kind of arts and crafts. The next 2 1/2 years for Jessenia will consist of chemotherapy, blood draws, transfusions, spinal taps, bone marrow testing, frequent visits to clinic and an unknown amount of hospital stays. Along with numerous physical changes swelling, hair loss, weight gain and weight loss depending on what phase she is on. We will also always be following her counts and our lives will revolve around these numbers. This just breaks our hearts to know that Jessenia will have to endure this long journey but we know God will help her win this battle one day at a time. And she will be a cancer survivor!
