After spending 18 months in the hospital, Chloe Cress, who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in the skeletal muscles at age 12, is going home — just in time for Christmas
At the time, father Shawn Cress thought daughter Chloe, then 12 years old, just needed some physical therapy. That was June 2018.But the limp turned into a fever, which led to lab tests at the doctor's office that"didn't look good," Shawn recalls. And by then, Chloe was having back pain.All this for the Kingsport, Tennessee family turned into a referral to Niswonger Children's Hospital in Johnson City, about 34 miles away, where doctors gave Chloe a CT scan.
"I mean like money problems, and all sorts of things like that. Unable to have the same house that I grew up in, having my dogs, having everything I love that isn't allowed to be at St. Jude."Days that had been filled with school and work were replaced with doctors' appointments -- with the family sometimes spending up to 14 hours in a day at the hospital. Chloe especially missed her two dogs, Buu and Rollie, she said.
