Carrie Messinger will talk about her daughter Grace who was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in early 2021, and never experienced any relief from this form of Pediatric Bone Cancer which led to her passing in September of 2023, just after her 15th birthday.

After hearing something pop in her left shoulder during a virtual school physical  education class during the pandemic, 12 year old Grace Messinger was diagnosed with  Osteosarcoma. Grace went through some very difficult treatment including 2 Thoracic Surgeries which removed a total of 55 nodules from her lung with many of them being cancerous,  a Limb Salvage surgery, and never had any type of break from this very difficult bone cancer. Despite having a great attitude and fighting hard, Grace passed away on September 27th of 2023, just after her 15th birthday.
