Last week the princess-in-training logged her third 5K in DeLand, Florida, this one without much assistance from the stroller. And when she crossed the finish line, Eleanor celebrated not only another completed race, but also a full year of being NED: no evidence of disease. “She had cancer on her adrenal glands, on her whole liver, and in her bone marrow,” Sarah Stephens, Eleanor’s mom, toldThe infant’s cancer doubled in size every four days for two weeks, and then she went into respiratory distress. Eleanor required chemotherapy, which she responded well to after two weeks, and the cancer shrunk. However, when she was just over a year old, scans showed the cancer had progressed and spread.
Two years ago, Eleanor served as the race starter—a position of honor, Ryan said—before covering the distance in her stroller with mom and dad pushing. Last year, Stephens toddled through the finish line, but this year, she wanted to jump out of the stroller right away.
