Answer 1

If you mean Anna O'Connor, She's the Founder of Anna's Hope(Charity fund research for a cure for those many precious children presently suffering from neuroblastoma)

She was diagnosed with Stage IV, high risk Neuroblastoma at age 17, just prior to her senior year at Wheaton North High School. She has endured multiple rounds of chemotherapy, major surgery to remove the primary abdominal tumor, many rounds of radiation and has participated in numerous clinical trials including a high-dose radioactive isotope infusion (MIBG), monoclonal anti-bodies (3f8), a next generation targeted chemo (ABT-751), a newly engineered biological compound (CEP-701), another oral formulation, Fenretinide XLS, and rapamycin and sunitinib. Having progressed on Irinotecan & Temador, she's recently completed a trial using MIBG-Ultratrace and then was placed on an antiangiogenic called Thalidomide combined with a chemo, Temodar. Anna is enrolled in an adult clinical trial taking pf02341066, an ALK inhibitor and was on this breakthrough medicine for over a year. She is currently on a cytoxan/zometa/Avastin combination. Although still plagued by disease, spreading from several bones to her lungs, liver and multiple sites in her abdomen, she has graduated with her B.A. in Psychology from Wheaton College near her home in Wheaton, Illinois.
