It came as a shock!" -Ian Sterling (age 30) - Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia "My orthopedic surgeon told me because of the location there was no re-constructive surgery they could do, they had to amputate. I was devastated, I was 18, I couldn't lose my leg." -Brittany Taylor (age 18) - Giant Cell Rich Osteosarcoma "My doctor reassured me that this was completely treatable, and if I were to get a cancer, this was the best one to get.
