Young children, typically younger than four, are affected. The tumor was wrapped around her brain stem, making radiotherapy or removal unfeasible. She underwent chemotherapy and bone marrow transplants where she will act as her own donor.
She was survived by an adorable family that includes her father, mother, one sister and a brother. Her twin brothers have already passed away before she was born. Gofundme page was created by a local fundraiser to support Savannah’s treatment. On December 17, Christmas concert was dedicated to Savannah and her incredible family.
