Aubrey Konchar

Hi, my name is Tina I am Aubrey's Grandma.......

Who wants a cancer diagnosis or a go fund me??? Not us, many family members would trade places with Aubrey in a second.

It breaks my heart and drains me emotionally and physically to post what we don't want to be our reality......we are still remaining in prayer and begging God for a miracle.

Here is Aubrey's story so far.....

Aubrey has recently been diagnosed with Adrenalcortical carcinoma

It is an extremely rare form of cancer 1 in a million children are diagnosed each year. We have found no-one in her age range with this type.

Life has been a whirlwind since November 3. Aubrey was found passed out having a seizure. She was taken to Indianapolis for treatment and released stable with no diagnosis and pending test results.

On Dec. 11 the Doctors tried to begin taking her off some of the seizure medication and this led to her having another seizure.

She has had high BP as a symptom since November 3rd and the doctors didn't say we should be concerned and put her on some medication for spinal brain pressure.

They asked us to wait until she was off her steroid medication for a certain time frame so that they could collect more blood tests.

During a follow-up Neurology appointment, we had a list of questions that the Doctor could not answer and she still was having high BP. While at this appointment and still not getting any answers we decided to take her to Luries Children's Hospital....because we needed to get to the bottom of her high BP.

After fears of the Lurie ER kicking us out it ended up being the best decision we made with the most heartbreaking, gut-wrenching outcome. They diagnosed our girl with ACC within 6 hours. They had to take a biopsy to prove their diagnosis and that leaves us here.

With Trembling Faith, hoping and praying and needing support.

Aubrey's treatment will be ongoing and everything is so expensive. Her treatment plan begins next Wednesday the hospital asked her parents to arrive there with her early in the morning.

Please pray for wisdom and knowledge for everyone, peace, and that Aubrey's body will start fighting. If you can afford to donate something please help us through this awful, hopeful journey.

This cancer is extremely aggressive and hard to diagnose. Normal labs that are taken for infection etc. are within normal limits. Luries took a deep dive into further testing and were able to diagnose her.
