St. Jude patient Eri’Elle , soft tissue cancer

Scan to learn more about Eri’Elle

Every child deserves a chance to live their best life. When a tumor prevented little Eri’Elle from walking, her mother, Angel, searched for answers. Doctors referred Eri’Elle to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital,® and after a few phone calls to family, mother and child departed for St. Jude with just “the clothes on their back.” Eri’Elle was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive malignant rhabdoid tumor on her spine and began treatment immediately. Because of people like you, families like Eri’Elle’s never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.

At St. Jude, Angel saw her daughter take her first steps — for a second time. “I’m grateful for every dollar that anybody gives because that’s why my child’s still here,” Angel said. “That’s why she’s alive.”
