It’s difficult to think about what children growing up with kidney conditions are facing: painful, life-long symptoms and countless treatments. The loneliness of dealing with a critical illness. The loss of priceless childhood memories. The fear of what the future may hold.

But this is the heartbreaking reality for kids like 10-year-old Aryana.

Aryana was diagnosed with a rare Wilms’ tumor, a form of kidney cancer that primarily affects young children. Through countless treatments and hospital stays, Aryana never lost her positive spirit. Aryana fought hard and waited patiently until she was healthy enough to have her wish fulfilled.

When the day finally came for Aryana’s wish to come true, she smiled ear to ear as she picked out her perfect gray-and-white kitten, Lily.

Now, Lily helps Aryana feel healthier and stronger every day, providing a sense of comfort, hope and companionship.
