Help Save Little Sophia: Fighting High-Risk Neuroblastoma

Hi, my name is Robin, and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart on behalf of my brave, bright, and beautiful little niece named Sophia.

Sophia is just 5 years old — full of energy, laughter, and love. She adores unicorns, painting rainbows, and dancing to her favorite K-pop music. But behind her glowing smile is a battle no child should ever have to face.

Last month, Sophia was diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma, an aggressive form of childhood cancer. What started as stomach pain turned into a nightmare no parent is ever prepared for. After countless tests, scans, and sleepless nights, doctors found a large tumor near her adrenal gland that has already spread to her bones and bone marrow. Sophia is now fighting high-risk neuroblastoma — and she’s fighting with every ounce of her tiny, mighty spirit.


Her Fight So Far and the Road Ahead

Sophia is currently undergoing treatment at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, one of the top pediatric cancer centers in the country. Her care team is extraordinary, and they’re doing everything possible to give Sophia the best chance at survival.

Since her diagnosis, Sophia has already endured multiple rounds of high-dose chemotherapy. And, she has more than a year of procedures remaining, including additional chemotherapy, surgery, a stem cell transplant, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy.

Sophia has already spent days and nights in the hospital, missing playground adventures at kindergarten, birthday parties, and more. Still, Sophia keeps smiling. Her strength inspires everyone around her.

But her battle isn’t over.

We believe in Sophia’s strength. We believe in miracles. But we also believe in the power of community — and that’s why we’re asking for your help. We pray her specialized treatment plan gives Sophia the fighting chance she deserves — but it does come with overwhelming costs.

Your donation will help cover:
• Medical bills not covered by insurance
• Specialized treatment
• Daily expenses as one parent has had to leave work to care for Sophia full-time
• Post-treatment rehabilitation and emotional support

No family should have to choose between affording treatment and saving their child’s life. Whether you’re able to give $5 or $500, every single contribution matters. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing Sophia’s story. Help us bring hope, prayers, and healing to this sweet, courageous girl.


From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. Thank you for standing with Sophia.

With gratitude,
Sophia’s Family and Friends
