MEET STELLA
AGE 5
Born with the two heart conditions, Stella’s family knew she would need heart surgery eventually. But at 13 months, she suddenly had trouble walking. Boston Children’s doctors found a tumor on her spinal cord. Chemotherapy helped Stella beat neuroblastoma at 2 and she had open-heart surgery at 4. Now, ongoing treatment keeps her happy, healthy and active.
