Prayers for Gloria
Donation protected
On Oct 7th 2013 Gloria Aguilera was diagnosed with stage 3 Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. Since then her cancer has spread to numerous sites in her body. She now has stage 4 Rhabdomyosarcoma and is no longer curable. Despite what the doctors say we hold onto our faith in god!
We created this page to help with medical cost and to help ease the financial hardship for now and anymore unexpected emergencies. Gloria was the daughter who always worked so hard to provide for her family. She was always there for anyone who was in need. It's a constant worry to her as it is to anyone in this situation. So i'd just like to thank everyone again for all the support small or big means the world to us. We don't know how we would've got this far if it wasn't for your continued support and prayers. God Bless.
Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma
Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) typically affects all age groups equally. It makes up a larger portion of RMS in older children and teens than in younger children (because ERMS is less common at older ages).
ARMS most often occurs in large muscles of the trunk, arms, and legs. The cells of ARMS look like the normal muscle cells seen in a 10-week-old fetus.
ARMS tends to grow faster than ERMS and usually requires more intense treatment.
Rhabdomyosarcoma in adults
Most Rhabdomyosarcomas develop in children, but they can also occur in adults. Adults are more likely to have faster-growing types of RMS and to have them in parts of the body that are harder to treat. Because of this, RMS in adults is often harder to treat effectively.
