Being a recent brain tumor surgery survivor (that sounds so intense, doesn't it?!?!?!), I wanted to blog about this little girl I found on the internet today. Her name is Avery Sax and she lives in San Diego, not far from me. Her blog is called brAvery now.
She is eleven years old and has an inoperable brain tumor. She has survived radiation over the past year and has such a positive outlook on life. I was so touched reading her story and her blog entries. She also started a recycling foundation to raise money. This is her story.
My name is Avery Sax & I’m 11 years old. On March 12th 2011, while celebrating my best friend’s birthday, I started feeling sick. I had the worst headache of my life & was throwing up everywhere. I flew in a helicopter to Children’s Hospital and, after being in the ICU & months of procedures, I’m undergoing brain radiation now at UCLA for an inoperable, really BIG arteriovenous malformation (AVM). I am lucky that I recovered from my brain hemorrhage but have a long way to go. The doctors don’t know how things will turn out. I guess it doesn’t look too good, but I believe I am going to be great & refuse to live in a bubble. I just want to live LIFE so please help me & my family to keep calm, carry on and fight with brAVERY.
You can read more about me at my website brAVERY now and please Recycle with brAvery.
Thank you!
Love,
Avery (The Miracle Kid)
And here is a quote I doodled that she wrote:
I wish the best to Avery and her family during her struggle. I can relate in many ways and cannot IMAGINE going through this as an 11 year old girl or watching my child go through it. Prayers and blessings to her and her loved ones! Suzy
wow--POWERFUL!

I'm also a brain tumor surgery survivor and I agree, I can't imagine a young girl having to go through all of it. Thank you for the link so we can support her. She truly is Brave.
