Condolence to the family 2 years Layla Grace. Layla Grace has lost his battle to Neuroblastoma - a type of cancer.
Layla Grace's Story:

Layla Grace has a big 15-month investigation. At around 16 months of sleeping habits and appetite began to change and Layla Grace started to become more easily upset. Mid-March Layla Grace's appetite began to decline. By the time we thought we were dealing with a picky eater. Early May Layla Grace woke up one morning with swollen eyes. We took him to the doctor and Layla Grace treated for ear infections and doctors say only swollen ear infections. At the same time we note that Layla Grace's belly hard and a bit paunchy. He never defecate for several days and we were worried that Layla Grace became constipated.

The next day we brought Layla Grace to the pediatrician who put in Mirilax over the weekend and told us to call back on Monday. Layla Grace Monday morning did not eat at all, there is still a dirty diaper, Layla Grace's activity levels have decreased and rubbing your stomach and lower back and saying owie.

Our pediatrician referred us to a GI specialist to see why Layla Grace was so constipated and not eating. On Thursday, May 7th day as we sat in the GI specialist's office expecting to be told that Layla Grace will require some type of treatment for constipation, instead we hear words like cancer and leukemia. A series of X-rays and tests were ordered and we were sent home to wait for the results.

That night, about five minutes after we walked in the door we got an urgent phone call from the GI specialist told us that the test results, that things are not good and that we brought Layla Grace to the emergency room immediately and that a team of doctors will wait for us.

Layla Grace has a large cancerous tumor (Stage 4 Neuroblastoma) in the stomach. Extends from above his left kidney, at his side, on the stomach Layla Grace and wrapped around her aorta. In addition, cancer in the bone marrow.

Layla Grace's sweet we went from a normal happy and healthy for the weary, pain, and skin and bones in a matter of a week and a half.
