Please Help Julia beat Stage IV Cancer

When we received the unimaginable news that Friday night that our 5 year old daughter has stage 4 metastatic high risk neuroblastoma our hearts were crushed and our lives where all changed forever. Julia Duggan was diagnosed with a large 15cm x 11cm x 15cm tumor that originated from her right adrenal gland and extends across her body to her left side, extends back to her spine, and extends down into the abdomen to her pelvis. MIBG scans revealed the cancer had also spread throughout her bones and bone marrow as well. Chemotherapy was immediately started and Julia recently had a 13 1/2 hour surgery at Sloan Kettering to remove the primary tumor and to peel tumor away from all the major arteries and veins where the tumor has encased.

How any funds raised with be used:

All funds raised will be used to pay for all out of pocket medical expenses first and foremost and then for expenses associated with the time spent at Dana Farber/Boston Children's Hospital in Boston, MA, Hasbro Children's Hospital in Providence RI, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City for treatment.

On behalf of Julia's family we thank you from the bottom of our heart for all the love, support, and generosity to help our little Julia beat Neuroblastoma!
