This 9 year old girl can be found learning to play the piano and reading. She loves to do word searches, play board games and spend time with her favorite person in the whole world, her older sister.
Out of nowhere in late 2023 she began limping, swelling in her feet, and purple rashes on her hands and torso. What they suspected was an everyday childhood virus continued to get worse was eventually diagnosed as Lupus Nephritis. The next several months were a blur of appointments and tests and within 6 months she was found in her home non-responsive, seizing and vomiting. The inflammation had moved to the vessels in her brain, kidneys and liver. Now on aggressive immunosuppressant therapy and new anti-seizure medications the family is hopeful for the first time in a while.
Alberta Dreams cannot wait to keep this hope alive by creating a special space, where no boys are allowed for this amazing young girl to spend quality time with her big sister and her other friends with the backyard She Shed of her Dreams.
