Meet Madison

Child's condition: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Madison

Madison

From the Stratford stage to a hospital bed in the SickKids oncology unit - in the summer of 2007, 10-year-old Madison made quite the transition. As a young actress she tried to ignore her back pains and feelings of exhaustion until they became too much to bear. Doctors at SickKids confirmed she had leukemia. After countless rounds of chemotherapy over seven months, she finished her intense treatment plan. Today she is 11 years old and back on stage.
