Nora was diagnosed on September 15, 2021 at the age of 9 with DIPG. She battled for 11 months and received her angel wings on August 17, 2022. She was just 10 years old. My sweet girl loved life to the fullest. She never once complained and was such a warrior through all the needle pokes, hospital stays and radiation appointments. Although she was just 10 years old she made such an amazing impact on so many people in this world. She was a comedian and full of wit and sass, she brought so much joy to her friends and family. She loved making people laugh and was definitely a prankster. Nora had such a strong love for animals and wanted to be a Veterinarian some day. She had a German Shepherd named Jax, two cats, one named Pickle and the other named Izzy, a leopard gecko named Lemon, a snake named Petey and two red eye tree frogs named Frank and Greta. Nora also had a love for food, she enjoyed trying new foods, but her favorite place was Olive Garden and she loved the fettuccine alfredo. She loved ribs, steak, ice cream, strawberries and grapes were some of her favorites. She enjoyed spending time with friends and family and loved to tease her little sister Lila. She couldn't wait to become a big sister and was a wonderful sister! Nora's hobbies were shopping, this girl loved to shop! We had the chance to visit the Mall of America for make a wish. It was her wish to see the biggest mall in the states. She had such a blast and I will never forget out last trip together. We all miss her terribly, she had such a contagious laugh and I would give anything to laugh with her again. It has been a grueling 20 months without her here.  #Forever 10, we need a cure!
