Meet our Lincoln, NE Students of the Year Honored Hero! Maggie is a loving, kind, funny, and smart daughter. On May 31, 2018 we took Maggie to the doctor for a fever that had persisted for over a week. We thought it was an ear infection that she couldn’t shake. The doctor drew blood and told us we needed to go to Children’s Hospital immediately. The next day they diagnosed Maggie with ALL: acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Maggie has already completed a year and half of treatment, with another 9 months to go. She’s faced many struggles along the way, but we keep her number one goal to remain a kid and live the life she deserves.
