Every year, the CAA’s amazing dance companies put on a Benefit Concert to honor and raise money for local families or organizations. It is always such a special night as our dancers use their talents to reach out and make a difference in the world around them. On December 4th and 5th, we are so humbled to be dancing to honor two incredible girls named Kate and Ellie.
About Kate & Ellie:
Kate and Ellie, adorable identical twin girls that are both fighting Leukemia at the age of 3. Kate was diagnosed in October 2019, Ellie was diagnosed in March 2020 as the pandemic also took hold. The treatment to fight their type of cancer is about 2 1/2 years that requires them to get chemotherapy treatments weekly for the first 9 or so months, followed by daily chemo pills, steroid pulses, hospital visits, and regular lumbar punctures for the next year and a half. While undergoing treatment they are immuno-compromised, which makes going anywhere scary, especially during COVID-19. They are the youngest of 5 children (ages 14, 12, 8, 3, 3). The older children are not able to leave the house in order to protect the twins. So their family is in total quarantine. We can imagine how difficult this must be for their family.
