2020 Childhood Cancer Survivor Graduate Katie!

Meet Katie: “Katie was treated at Cancercare MB in 2015 at age 13 for ovarian dysgerminoma. Surgery and chemotherapy were successful and now Katie is a proud, healthy survivor and 2020 high school graduate from St. Mary’s Academy. It’s been a journey! We are forever grateful for everyone who has helped Katie get to where she is today. We have good memories of going to the Candlelighter events Despicable Me movie and family camp in 2015. This summer Katie is training with Team Manitoba Rowing and working part time. In the fall she will attend first year Science at the University of Manitoba. We are so proud of her! We appreciate all Candlelighters does for families with kids going through cancer treatment ❤️” Congratulations Katie! We were honoured to present you with your $500 childhood cancer survivor grad gift card! We wish you a healthy and bright future!
