Why Ava wants to be a voice for children fighting cancer:

I would like to be a voice for children fighting cancer because no child should have to go through the horrible experience of cancer. They should be going to school or going to the park to play with their friends instead of being in a hospital bed receiving treatment and fighting for their lives. No parent should have to go through the fear of losing their child or seeing their child suffer. The more awareness we can get, the quicker we can come to ending childhood cancer.
