She also loves princesses and going to Disney. A ball of energy with a sunshine personality, Georgia brings a lot of joy to people wherever she goes.
One Easter morning, Georgia’s mom, Gina, was changing Georgia’s diaper and noticed it was pink. She took Georgia straight to the ER. Within an hour, an ultrasound found a three-inch mass on Georgia’s kidney. She was then taken by ambulance to the nearest children’s hospital where she was diagnosed with stage 1 Wilms tumor.
Georgia had the tumor and her entire right kidney removed.
Since then, Georgia has rung the bell to signal the end of her treatment and is in a survivorship clinic! Throughout her treatment, she continuously showed her mom that she has so much strength. She was born at the beginning of the nationwide shutdown, and it was just Gina and Georgia navigating a whole new world. Georgia has gone through so much, but you would never know. She’s a warrior and her hero.
“Although this journey is scary, you will see so much good,” Gina said. “People will step up to help you every step of the way. People at the hospital will be kinder than you thought possible.”
To Gina, the existence of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) really shows that a lot of people are in this fight for a cure, including kids. That’s why she donates to ALSF fundraisers when she can. It brings her hope.
Today, Georgia is 5 years old, thriving through kindergarten, and three years cancer-free! While Georgia continues to visit the survivorship clinic, her check-ups are becoming farther apart. Meanwhile, she is trying out new sports, taking trips with her family and having fun at at cheerleading practice. Gina hopes that her daughter continues to live a full and happy life free from cancer. That is her hope for all children – that the success rate of treatment reaches 100 percent.
