Juanita Prada was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia at age ten and fourteen. She was affected with cancer twice and underwent chemotherapy, radiation and blood transfusions as a part of her journey. She says that " I live in the moment, and each minute I breathe is a gift. During cancer and its treatments, it is important to surround yourself with people who will help you rise up again and regain the energy that is missing."
