A Message From The Palethorpes

One year ago our life was changed forever when Lina was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at BCCH and the fight for her life began. It is a day we will never forget.
Even though it has been a difficult and trying year, it has been full of magical moments as well. We feel very blessed
to have so many AMAZING people in our lives and to live in such a caring and supportive community (Squamish you rock!!!!!). This past year would have been
very different and way harder without all the support we have received. Thank you does not seem to be enough and we cannot wait to pay it forward. 

As we head into year two of cancer treatment for Lina we have settled in for a longer battle but we remain positive to seeing it through.
The first year of cancer treatment has only slowed Lina down for short periods of time, she is a very happy, feisty, cheeky, funny, walking, babbling character who despite her young age
has taught us so much. The bond between Lina and Frieda is amazing and makes this journey a lot easier.

Thank You & Danke for being there for us!

Lots of love
