Speaker 1 (00:17):
We are going through Jays Junior's applications and I was
reading all about Wyla and wanted to just have you
kind of just briefly give us Wila's story because I
know it's it's it's been a little tough Bush and.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Lila was diagnosed. She was a eight year old. She
was doing wrestling at the time, and from what we thought,
it was a wrestling injury that one of the tournaments
that she was at, the kid kept on putting her
in a cradle and I don't know if you know wrestling,
but those kind of moves are really hard to get

(00:50):
out of, and she kept on getting.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Out of it.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Right, and then it was like after that, she just
kept on having pain and screaming. At the time of
her lung's bloody murder in the middle of the night.
So then we took her to urgent care and they
told us that it was growing pains and where Lila
was having her pain it was like in her back,
like kind of on her butt shape almost right, So

(01:15):
just didn't sit right with me. And then after we
saw urgent care, two weeks later, we went to her
primary care doctor and they told us to go see
a orthopedic specialist and he did another X ray for himself,
and then he did an ultrasound because he's like, maybe

(01:37):
it's her psiatic nerves like inflated, and they noticed that
it is inflamed, and so they're like, all right, you know,
we're gonna race for her to do physical therapy. And
it was kind of towards the end of February when
her therapist noticed that within just one week her foot
was dropping and she's like, hey, this is a major flag.

(01:59):
And then all I said, PADEX specialists put in an MRI,
like a urgent one.

Speaker 4 (02:03):
And Lilah remained in pain this whole time, like the
pain never out, all these different things we're gonna try,
Lilah's still in pain.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
But at what point did you actually find out what
it was?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
April after the MRI wow.

She's had thirty three cycles of chemo, seven and a
half weeks of radiation for her spine, twelve days of
