Brave and Beautiful: Teen Cancer Awareness Through Kira’s Eyes

Kira is 13 years old, and not long ago, she was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma. Life shifted in an instant.

Since then, she’s met each day with quiet strength—facing hospital visits, tough treatments, and the hard reality of losing her hair with a resilience that’s moved everyone around her.

Her family continues to be inspired by the way she holds on to her light. Even on the hard days, Kira finds moments to smile, to laugh, and to just be herself.

They’re sharing her story not for sympathy, but to honor the beautiful strength she carries—and to let others walking a similar path know they’re not alone. There’s a whole community holding space, lifting hope, and sending love. 💜
