I'm pretty sure my daughter is the strongest person I know. This will be her third surgery, and I think I would be crumbling at the thought of yet another surgery. Yet she remains so positive and powerful.

I'll post on here throughout the recovery time and let everyone know how she's doing.

Nice to meet another mother of a GCT patient. A parent never wants their child to have to experience something like this but we're there to give them our love and support.
