Eliza has been fighting a rare and very aggressive cancer since she was 10 months old.
She was diagnosed with rhabdoid tumor in June of 2019 and is the only documented case of having all four diagnoses of rhabdoid tumor:
- Rhabdoid Tumor of the Kidney (RTK) – Left kidney engulfed by tumor
- Entire left kidney removed June 2019
- Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor (ATRT) – Brain
- 100% of tumor removed July 2019
- Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor (MRT) – Lung
- Two surgeries to remove tumors in right lung
- One surgery to remove the left lower lung
- Rhabdoid Tumor Predisposition Syndrome (RTPS) – SMARCB1 genetic mutation
- Eliza is the only documented case in the world of having inherited this mutation
- Kate, Eliza’s mommy, has the same SMARCB1 gene mutation, although she never developed rhabdoid tumors
- This unique SMARCB1 gene mutation runs in the family
Eliza has undergone extensive treatments and surgeries, and was evaluated at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital on November 10th to discuss additional treatment options, since she has failed all known protocols for rhabdoid tumor. Eliza has been undergoing additional treatments as part of a new trial at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital since winter, which required both of us (Kate and Chance) to step away from our jobs, and travel multiple hours one way for Eliza’s treatments. Eliza’s team eventually discovered 8 nodules in her lungs via CT scan. The team’s plan was to complete surgery to remove as much of the nodules as possible, and the remaining areas would undergo ablative radiation.
However, once Eliza's surgeon was inside, she was able to see the true aggressiveness of Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor. There are THOUSANDS of small tumors throughout the chest cavity. The cancer has "completely obliterated" the right lung, and the cancer is rapidly spreading over the heart and into her diaphragm. We originally hoped the surgery would give us another year or two with our sweet girl, but unfortunately now we are hoping for more than a few weeks..
This is obviously not the news we were expecting or hoping for, and to keep her comfortable, Eliza is now on hospice care. We are trying to soak up as much time as we can as a family, and create lasting memories together. Due to the overwhelming response on our first merchandise fundraiser, we wanted to do a second launch to allow more of our fans and followers to help us celebrate our beloved, sassy, brave, and truly inspiring daughter Eliza. The support we’ve felt for our family is overwhelming, and we are grateful for the love you’ve all shown our family through our Tiktok and Instagram accounts.

Eliza is a fun loving beautiful girl, she truly is a warrior for going through all this pain at such a young age. Her parents are very loving and i can’t imagine the pain they are going through. I love this family so much even without meeting them!
