“They’ve figured out how to play soccer in the hallways, and they pull pranks on the staff.” -Jennifer St. Clair on kids going through childhood cancer treatment #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“Childhood cancer is sad. Preventing it should be glorious. We know it’s not cheerful, but the attitudes of these kids who are going through it is cheerful. Getting involved isn’t sad: it’s heartwarming.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“I’m not really sure why this isn’t getting as much funding as the others. We’re focused on terminating cancer, but we’re not thinking of the different childhood cancers.” -Grace Arnold #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“All cancers can be cured if you participate. It doesn’t matter what cancer you want to support. Don’t wait until something happens: get involved early.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“It’s about being there and showing your support. You get through each day and hope to make it to the next day. We don’t take for granted, so now we’re trying to pay that forward.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“I felt alone the whole time, and I know Grace felt alone too. As a parent, you feel like it is your job to take care of this, and you don’t ask for help. I am proud of myself for getting through this and not being dependent.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“Chemo isn’t as dramatic as I thought. It’s a weekend in the hospital, and we’d have dance parties and order takeout. We were already going to be there, so we’d might as well enjoy it.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“@TimTebow wore Grace’s white bracelet on his throwing arm. We always said that he threw with Grace.” -Grace’s mother on the support of the @GatorsFB team for Grace #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“She realized that everything had changed, and she hadn’t. Everyone was wonderful with her, but things were different.” -Grace’s mother on Grace going back to school after completing treatment #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“As a parent, it starts with you. If you can’t be 110 percent for yourself, how can you be 110 percent for your child?” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
“We always told each other to stay strong and keep moving forward. You gotta keep your head up.” -Grace Arnold, an 18-year-old medulloblastoma survivor who has been cancer free for almost 12 years, on encouraging other cancer patients
“Grace is a miracle because the brain cancer dropped like rain and pooled at the base of her spine, so she couldn’t walk. She did an aggressive dose of chemotherapy, and she walked out of that hospital after the treatment.” -Grace’s mother #fivehappyendings#iamhappy
