Avalanna Routh was a six-year-old girl who had a type of cancer that was said to be specifically for toddlers, and it arises in the brain (known as an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor). Researchers have said that they have had a difficult time searching for a cure to this type of cancer, and Avalanna was lucky to have lived until the age of six. She was diagnosed at the extremely young age of only ninth months. Doctors had to do any treatment they could, no matter how extreme, to cure this terrible disease, by doing "extremely intensive chemo, directly into fluid surrounding the brain and tumor, combined with radiation therapy". Even after this and many other types of chemotherapy, she still had an exciting and optimistic personality, mostly any person would if they had met celebrities such as Justin Bieber. Avalanna's parents had done numerous amounts of fundraisers and trying to raise awareness for their daughters disease. However about two months ago, therapies had come to a halt, and last Wednesday, she had passed away.
