Sophie

Sophie Grace Taylor, or Super Strong Sophie, as her friends and family call her was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in January of 2018. Sophie battled through many cycles of chemotherapy and always with the most positive attitude. After a few months of chemotherapy treatment, Sophie had a rotationplasty surgery on her leg, which removed part of her leg and turned it upside-down to use the ankle joint as a new knee joint. In her amazing spirit Sophie never stopped shining, even with a difficult wound experience following surgery. Sophie continued chemotherapy after surgery, and remained very strong. On January 6, 2019, just 2 days after her one year diagnosis, Sophie was admitted to the hospital and it was found she had relapsed in her lungs with no further treatment options available. Sophie gained her angel wings on January 18. Sophie you are forever with us, and we will all stick our tongues out at cancer for you sweet girl.
