HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - About a year has passed since doctors found a brain tumor in Cheyleia Gomes.
The 10-year-old is now dealing with different physical challenges as both the disease and treatments progress, but one thing is certain: She’s not giving up.
“Thanks for all the love and support and donations,” Gomes said in a video call from New York City alongside her mom.
The family flew across country to get her treatment at Columbia University Medical Center in Manhattan. She’s now on her second clinical trial and the family says, if this one goes well, they could be there for the next two to three months.
