As reported by Jen Creer on our sister site, Blogging Baby, little 7-year-old Nadine, of Helena, Montana is experiencing cancer for the second time in her short life. The first time she had cancer she had a Wilms tumor on her kidney. It was surgically removed and Nadine went through a round of chemotherapy. All was well until recently, when a golf ball-sized tumor was detected and removed. The new tumor is not Wilms -- it is something else that might be related to Wilms but is much more aggressive and fast growing. Nadine will undergo a stronger chemo treatment. If this is unsuccessful, then the last resort will be a stem cell replacement procedure.

Nadine loves princess cards. Her friends and family have established a post office box for her where she can receive cards. Any love and support would be much appreciated for this lovely little girl as she endures what no young child should have to experience. To send her a card, please write to:
