Many of you know my daughter was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma #BrainCancer in July of 2022 at the age of 15. Today she will have her 9 month post chemo scans.
Please send prayers that her scans will continue to show no cancer reoccurrence (we won’t get results until 3/29). 🎗️
This is a desmoplastic/nodular medulloblastoma in a very young kid.
Questions:
1) What is the most likely molecular subgroup? (hint in the 2nd picture)
2) Are there any additional underlying conditions that should be investigated?

Each day my teen daughter is battling to reclaim her independence, her strength shining brighter than ever before. Her journey through battling Medulloblastoma has shown me the true meaning of resilience and the beauty of a spirit that refuses to be defeated. 🎗️

The birds’ songs resonate deeply to me as a mom of a child that has been diagnosed with cancer. They symbolize resilience and hope, echoing the belief in brighter tomorrows despite challenges. These melodies inspire me to cherish every moment and hold onto hope. #medulloblastoma

One year ago today my teen daughter completed 6 months of grueling neurotoxin chemotherapy for brain cancer. How could I ever be more proud of my girl….🩶💛🎗️
