Meet Hila, A Brave Young Girl Fighting Cancer

Writer: ToysToys

Hila, a brave and spirited girl with Down Syndrome, was diagnosed with Leukemia at just 18 months old. She fought tirelessly ultimately triumphing over the cancer. Sadly, the disease returned, posing a renewed battle for her fragile health.


We first visited Hila in 2022. Because of her love for dolls, her mom asked if we would gift Hila a wooden stroller which would help her walk, given her weak stature as a result of the chemo.


Our ongoing visits became cherished moments for Hila. Uplifting her spirits and bringing smiles to her face. Our toys provided comfort, distraction, and joy during her treatments.


One particular favorite is a teddy bear backpack which has become Hila’s best friend. Hila wears the backpack wherever she goes. It gives her a sense of security and a whole lot of joy!


As Hila continues her journey, we remain committed to brightening her days with hope and happiness. Her strength and resilience inspire us all, and we wish her a speedy recovery!
