Anaëlle D.

Profile and story

In 2023, at the age of two, Anaëlle was diagnosed with B-type acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She received treatment at the Centre de cancérologie Charles Bruneau at the CHU Ste-Justine, and for the past eight months, they have been visiting the center twice a week. Soon, it will be once every three weeks, and in less than a year, her treatments will be over.

Nana, or Nanelle to her friends, is determined, funny, generous and creative. She's a bubbly little girl who loves life; for her, every day is wonderful. The little art lover loves to tinker, paint and draw. She dreams of the day she'll be able to braid her hair like Princess Rapunzel.

A word of encouragement from her mom:

''Thank you so much for dedicating yourself to this cause. Every gesture counts, and without people like you, research wouldn't be possible and cancer centers wouldn't be the same.''
