2009 Battle for Bella Fishing Tournament

Thanks to everyone that helped in this event. We are pleased to announce that our efforts raised $6500 for Bella!  We will continue this effort for as long as it takes to get Bella back on track and healthy.   Please see the results at the end of the page.

 

Bella is 2 1/2 years old and has been diagnosed with cancer (high risk stage IV neuroblastoma) that has spread to her abdomen, vertebrae, bone marrow and right leg. This is worse than any nightmare we could have ever imagined. Our lives have been turned upside down, and just like that we now live in the cancer world. Bella will need six treatments after the chemo, that are still in the experimental phase so insurance does not pay for them. This special antibody specifically helps children with neuroblastoma completely rid their body of the cancer and helps fight it off. EACH ONE of the treatments will cost $18,000. This tumor may be aggressive but we have faith in God and faith in medicine and we are so hopeful this will be over in a year. We are and will be doing anything and everything in our power to make these treatments possible for our beautiful Bella Rose. She needs O+ blood donors as well.

You can help Bella!
