It seems like it was just a few years ago that my brother called and said that my 3 year old niece Katee was diagnosed with (ALL) leukemia. Those words always hit hard when you hear of a child struck with a life threatening illness but for me, this one was personal.
Katee is an amazing survivor! Thanks to the Children's Miracle Network, Children's Hospital of Illinois, and St. Jude's Hospital. Because of you, Katee is now 19 and thriving. She just ran 18 miles in the 66-mile Peru-to-Peoria relay for St. Jude Hospital.
I know first hand how wonderful it is to have a world class Children's Hospital here in Peoria.
