Talia is a 13 year old girl who loves makeup, fashion, dancing, her family, doggie Bella and has been fighting cancer now for nearly 6 years.
Talia Castellano was diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma on February 14, 2007. She was cancer free for 13 months but relapsed in Sept. 2008. Again she was cancer free for almost 2 years, but sadly relapsed a second time on August 13, 2010 and has now relapsed again for a third time on April 8, 2011. She will never give up and does not let multiple surgeries, hospital stays, lab tests, chemo treatments, experiemental treatments or anything else get in her way of being simply AMAZING. She loves makeup and has her own YouTube channel, TaliaJoy18 and is an inspiration to many.
Update 08/06/12: Talia's cancer has spread and is now in her bone. In addition, she has developed pre-leukemia. Talia has not given up, but is not going to go through any more painful and toxic treatments and just prolong and enjoy the rest of her life. She is a strong and very brave young woman and we are so very proud of her.
I found out about her a while ago and i am quite surprised at her enthusiasm for life even in her situation. I admire her and her popular word MAKEUP IS MY WIG. She does this as she is almost bald all year long from chemotherapy treatments and today she marks her sixth year struggling and all i can say is thank God for her cos she has inspired so many with her view of life.
She isn't letting go thou she is aware of her chances at life.
