They always say...you can't keep a good girl down! Well that is true about MaKayla Russell. This spunky, energetic, funny, and loveable 9-year-old has overcome so many challenges!
MaKayla had an arm injury early in 2022 and a bump appeared but continued to grow. After months of follow up, a biopsy was done and it turned out to be cancer (Rhabdomyosarcoma) in her left arm, lymph nodes and bone marrow.
She recently completed her chemotherapy treatments and is back on the ice with her hockey team, the Lady Dawgs!
