This story originally appeared at American Web Media<\/a>.<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Three years ago, a woman experienced a mother\u2019s worst nightmare when her four-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer. \u201cMy daughter was diagnosed with cancer at four years old. Four. Years. Old,\u201d the woman wrote on Love What Matters page. \u201cBone cancer, Ewing\u2019s Sarcoma.\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>The illness is especially heartbreaking when it affects somebody of such a young age. \u201cShe didn\u2019t know how to ride a bike, had never stepped into a classroom, and spent most of her days in a tutu,\u201d the child\u2019s mother wrote. \u201cIn the next year, she would endure more pain and suffering than most adults see in a lifetime.\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>\u201cShe would attend funerals of friends she met and loved, who were lost to the same disease she was fighting,\u201d the mother continued. \u201cShe would lose her beautiful head of blonde curls, nearly all of her muscle mass, and her childlike innocence.\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>The tumor\u2019s location between two ribs and touching her spine also made it difficult to operate. \u201cTreatment was brutal,\u201d the child\u2019s mother said, recalling 17 rounds of chemotherapy, multiple surgeries, and the removal of four ribs and part of her spine sheath, and a spinal fusion. \u201cFinally, she was declared in remission. I took home a frail, pale, bald, five-year-old, covered in scars.\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Fortunately, those days are in the past. \u201cIf you met my daughter today, this story would likely shock you,\u201d her mother wrote. \u201cThough small for 8 years old, she is beautiful, healthy, muscular, outgoing, funny, a talented, competitive dancer, and an honor roll student.\u201d<\/span>\u201cYet there is some healing that will never come. Every so often the realization that she is still here, while some children are not, weighs heavy on her brave heart,\u201d the woman wrote.<\/span>\"\"<\/span>
\n<\/span>And even though they couldn\u2019t possibly understand what this brave child was going through, school bullies also decided to interfere.<\/span>\u201cA few weeks ago, on a rushed morning, I threw her shorts and a tank top and asked her to get dressed,\u201d the blogger recalled. \u201cShe quietly asked me for a different shirt. Oblivious and in a hurry, I said, \u2018Why? You loved that one. Just put it on. We gotta go.\u2019\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Fortunately, this brave girl decided to tell her mother was really bothering her. \u201cA boy at camp told me I shouldn\u2019t wear shirts that show my scars. He said they are scary,\u201d the girl sobbed. \u201cI just want to be normal.\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>The mother, fortunately, reminded her daughter that she could serve as an inspiration for other little girls who might have similar scars. The girl smiled, put on her brave face, and showed that bully who\u2019s boss by proudly wearing her favorite shirt to school.<\/span>
