On April 19th, 2010, a CT scan revealed a tumor in Amanda's brain. After a successful surgery to remove the tumor on April 21, 2010, our little princess was officially diagnosed with a rare brain tumor; Embroyanal Tumor with Abundant Neuropil & True Rosettes (ETANTR). It is a recently recognized, rare tumor that affects children; the oldest is Zoe, a five year old girl from Texas. About Amanda . . . Amanda and her twin brother, Julian, were born on June 29, 2007. They were five days premature. Although their condition was delicate and they remained in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for a short period of time, they were resilient, strong, and have flourished without any complications. Amanda is a cheerful, lively, sweet little girl who likes to dance, dress up, and play with her brother and all her cousins; Gaby, Victoria, Sabrina, Ella, Landy, Danny, Christopher, Jonathan, Christian, Adrian, Gabriel, Liah-Nicole, Jason and Danny. She is loved and sorely missed by all her friends and teachers at Kidworks USA.
Her story has touched countless people. Our family
asks for your prayers: prayers for Amanda's
restored health, prayers for her parents to be
able to approach each day with renewed faith and
strength and for her medical team, that they be
able to treat and eradicate this tumor that has
turned this family's world upside down.
