Kylie Lynn Branch was diagnosed with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) on January 22, 2015, just two days before her second birthday.

Her only symptom was petechia, small red dots on her skin that started on her ears and spread down her body over a month. Doctors misdiagnosed her twice before finally running a blood panel which showed an extremely high white blood cell count. She was sent to Children's Hospital LA where she was diagnosed and it's been her second home and second family ever since. She's a true warrior fighting every day while keeping a smile on her face.
