Thank you @karsenstrong4 💛 #Repost @karsenstro Thank you @karsenstrong4 💛 #Repost @karsenstrong4 with @use.repost ・・・ Today we dropped a box of @bravegowns off to the best childhood cancer foundation in New York. @candlelightersnyc provided so much for us during our 5 month stay while we were living at the Ronald McDonald House during Karsens treatment. There’s not a better feeling than to give something back to those who gave to you…and to hopefully provide some smiles to some very deserving kids! Of course while we were there, @amygllt wouldn’t let Karsen leave empty handed and let him pick a couple of toys from their toy closet! We are eternally grateful to @barbarazobian , Amy and their entire team of volunteers for all they do for families like us; who are away from home getting treatment for their children. Watching your child battle cancer isn’t easy…but Candlelighters NYC did everything they could to keep us comfortable, fed, and let us know that they cared….always offering us a place to go to just break away from the hospital. Your generosity does not go unnoticed…..Thank you!!!! #candlelightersnyc

Stronger together @littleadventuresdressups 💛 Stronger together @littleadventuresdressups 💛 #Repost @littleadventuresdressups with @use.repost ・・・ 🌟 Little Hero Spotlight: Zoie 🌟 Introducing Zoie, a vibrant and joyful three-year-old girl who has always embraced life with endless energy. She loved attending preschool, playing soccer, dancing, and tumbling, radiating happiness wherever she went. However, last winter, her world took an unexpected turn when a lump was discovered on her neck, initially thought to be caused by a virus. Little did anyone know that this was just the beginning of Zoie's courageous battle. 💪🎗️ Within five days of the discovery, Zoie received a devastating diagnosis: T-Cell Lymphoma. Her tumor was a staggering three times the size of her heart, gradually encroaching on her chest cavity, compressing her airways, and even impacting her precious heart. It was an unimaginable challenge, but Zoie's strength shone through. Miraculously, she responded swiftly to treatment, and just six weeks later, the tumor became inactive and started to break apart. 🙏❤️ Zoie exemplifies the true essence of a warrior princess, demonstrating unwavering strength and bravery in the face of adversity. She is an inspiration to us all! 🌟👑 She designed this dress herself and 15% of all future sales will be donated to Candlelighters NYC to help support kids currently undergoing cancer therapy. www.candlelightersnyc.org @candlelightersnyc
