This week's featured childhood cancer hero is Allison Petrenas! A true dancer at heart, Allison had a misstep when she was diagnosed with cancer in 2020. She was unable to move her left leg and ankle like she used to in dance class, then was unable to walk normally. But she was determined not to give up. Allison had an eight-hour long brain surgery but couldn't remove all of the meningioma, so doctors followed that with proton radiation for six weeks. Since then, Allison has worked hard to strengthen the left side of her body, and has been able to perform on stage again! Cheer Allison on in the comments!
