Melisa’s mom became concerned shortly after Melisa’s 2nd birthday when a bulge developed on her daughters eyebrow. At first doctors thought she may have fractured her bone but when it did not improve she was brought into Children’s Hospital.  Melisa was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma and began chemotherapy.  The tumor shrank and her eye is no longer swollen however, Melisa has a long road of treatment ahead of here.

Everyone who meets this spunky little princess falls in love with her smile.  Melisa is a girly girl who loves to rock her big bows and thinks her bald head feels weird but loves to rub it. Enjoy the sweetness |  Meet Melisa
