PRINCESS TEAGAN
 
Teagan is a beautiful 2-year-old girl who is a complete blessing to her mom and dad. On June 1, 2007, after a trip to the pediatrician because of trouble walking and standing up, their world was turned upside down. Teagan was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma, a childhood brain tumor. She was rushed to Children’s Memorial Hospital, where she underwent an 8-hour surgery to remove the tumor. Days later, her lung collapsed. She has endured many infections, over 8 surgeries, and is now battling some breathing issues. Due to being on a breathing tube for 2 months, she is struggling to talk. She needs physical, speech, and occupational therapy daily. Teagan has been in the ICU for over 3 months battling shunt problems, severe belly pain, and breathing issues. She has not been the same little sweet girl they know since the tumor was removed back in June. Many prayers are needed for this wonderful family.
