PHOTOGRAPHY WITH A PURPOSE

MCKENNA :: Ankylosing Spondilitiss

McKenna was 16 when she was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondilitiss but after going UCSF we found out that she has actually had it since 2013 when had surgery on her feet.

McKenna is very active in her High School Marching Band despite being in pain most of the time. She also tries to volunteer at a local horse rescue. She has just recently participated in Kids Day where she sold newspapers for Valley Children’s Hospital where she has been a patient until going to UCSF.

McKenna is a special person to be around she is always thinking of her friends before she does her self. She also adopted 2 cats Chewie and Han Solo aka Thunder Cat.

When McKenna was diagnosed she didn’t feel sorry for herself she immediately started researching what she was going to have to do in order to stay healthy. McKenna is planning on going to College of the Sequoias this year after graduation where she is going to major in nursing, she eventually want to become a Physicial Assistant or Nurse Practitioner and work in pediatric orthopedics.

Please join Sweet Nectar Society in saying, Mckenna, we are so proud of you, we know you will do big things in life!
