Story:
Stephanie was diagnosed with Germ Cell cancer when she was 26 months old and received 6 bouts of chemo. She was and still is a very happy girl. Stephanie doesn’t remember those days but her father and I remember all too well how very sick she was. The day they told us that she had cancer and was going to receive chemo was the worst day of our lives.

Mom and Dad’s Wish and Dreams for the future:
Stephanie is a very special girl and a true hero in my books. She pulled through like a champ, and to look at her today at how healthy she is you would never know that 10 years ago out little girl was very sick. Stephanie is a Terry Team Member for the Terry Fox Run. Every year here in Sarnia she helps raise money for Cancer research. Like Terry Fox is a hero to the world, Stephanie is our HERO. We love you Stephanie. Love mom and dad and family.
