Sarah Cole Hardy was born on April 13th, 2011. Her parents are Cassy Hill Hardy and Eric Hardy. Sarah Cole has always been an extremely happy baby girl with a huge grin on her face. She will steal your heart with her big green eyes and beautiful auburn hair. Even though to her it mean yes, her favorite word is no. At 18 months old her walking and motor skills began to regress in addition to her ey
esight. Her parents took her to MUSC and after extensive testing they discovered a very large brain tumor which had been growing since before birth. A week after the tumor was found, they performed surgery to retrieve a biopsy of the tumor and to attempt to remove as much of the tumor as possible. When the biopsy came back, Sarah Cole was diagnosed with stage 2 brain cancer. The tumor was found to be a Pilomyxoid asprocytoma. In the years to come, Sarah Cole will be given chemotherapy treatment to shrink and maintain the size of the tumor until she is between the ages of 3 and 5. At that time her brain will be developed enough to survive radiation treatment to destroy the remaining portion of the tumor. Please keep her and her family in your prayers through this long battle.
