“Reason this person is a Gold Ribbon Hero: She was diagnosed on 7-23-14 with stage 3 osteosarcoma of the tibia. She endured 10 months of chemo and had the 4th growing prosthesis implant in the USA surgery on 10/29/14. She has finished treatment however she is awaiting a multitude of surgeries to correct complications from the original surgery. She has suffered severe depression and fights chronic pain every day of her life. She missed her 8th grade year if school and is goin to miss the beginning part of her freshman year of high school. She’s now battling a huge weight gain because she cannot ambulate at all and every bit of this is knocking her self esteem further in the dirt. This would be an awesome thing to have done for her.” – Jenny M
