Abby Clark is only 3 years old and already knows the worst side of a hospital.
In Katy, Texas, chemotherapy for her acute B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia destroyed her immune system, leaving her septic and simultaneously infected with E. coli and klebsiella. To protect her, doctors isolated her from her older brother for nine days, who is almost 6 years old. A period of separation that her mother, Jennifer Clark, described as brutal.
@supertiredparents When you haven’t seen your brother in 9 days since you’ve been on isolation 🥹❤️ (no more comments about my sons iPad. He walked in with it to show her a new game and didn’t know she could touch him. He put it down on the couch at the end of the video and jumped in bed with her to play for the next hour. I can’t believe people focus on that. Enjoy the video or be a troll somewhere else thanks bye ##leukemiawarrior##cancermom##childhoodcancer##cancersucks##leukemia##momtok##cancer #houston #katytx ♬ Bundle of Joy (From “Inside Out”) – Piano Version – Clavier & your movie soundtrack
On May 4, when they were finally allowed to reunite, Jennifer recorded the exact moment Abby saw her brother enter the hospital room. The hug that followed went so viral that it surpassed 18 million views on TikTok. Jennifer did not hesitate to define her daughter with a single word: fighter. Abby’s treatment will last another two and a half years, and her parents insist on something that saved their little girl’s life: blood donations are still needed.
