SAN ANTONIO – At just 3 years old, Amy Markovsky is fighting the battle of her life after a diagnosis that left her parents fearing the worst. But though she is small, she is also mighty and resilient as her prognosis is favorable.
In January, Amy developed a rash that got her mother’s attention. She asked the pediatrician about it while she was at an annual checkup for her son, 5-year-old Aiden.
“He asked if the rash was all over her body, and I said yes. And then he kind of gave me a look of concern,” said Brandi Markovsky, Amy’s mother.
