Nieva was diagnosed with ALL in May of 2012. 6 weeks ago with only 2 months of treatment to go she caught life threatening disseminated chickenpox, was intubated on respirators, fought pneumonia, got ARDS, and was hospitalized for over 3 weeks, had to relearn to walk, swallow, & talk. 10 days after leaving the hospital, the chickenpox came back (as can be common with immunocompromised children). She is now on day 5 of being hospitalized again. Nieva never complains and is always happy.
