Meet our warrior Princess, NEGU fighter Karen! Karen is 4 years old and courageously fighting Non-Hodgkins T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma.
Karen’s mom tell us that NEGU means to her, “Never Ever Give Up..It’s all I have, it’s all I can do to hold on to my little girl. Jessie helped us understand that we are all one big family and that all of our missions should include trying to help and comfort others, while at the same time bringing awareness to childhood cancers.”
Karen loves Hello Kitty, the Disney princesses and the group One Direction. She loves to sing and dance, ballet and tap. After treatment, Karen has returned to her dance class!
Karen’s favorite color is pink .
“Karen has a great love and devotion for Our Lady of Guadalupe. Whenever we are at the hospital she asks to go into the hospital’s chapel where she sings Our Lady of Guadalupe. Karen is my hero and inspiration. She is such a strong little girl. There are days we come home from chemo and all she wants to do is sing and dance. We are so blessed. Even though there are certain aspects that still scare her a great deal, Karen still makes the best of the situation. Her strenght inspires me”- Karen’s mom.
