 Lily was diagnosed with ALL (Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia) on December 1, 2008. Her doctor explained leukemia to her by
telling her that the leukemia cells were like weeds that crowd out the good flowers in a garden. For the next two
and a half years, Lily will undergo a regimen of chemotherapy and other treatments in order to kill all the weeds so that
only healthy and beautiful flowers will grow in "Lily's Garden."
