History
Ellie Shoal Potvin, a precious child known for
“Specializing in being Kind” at only 6 years of age, Ellie was diagnosed July 2,
2008 with a rare childhood cancer called Stage 4 Rhabdomyosarcoma. To her
parents shock they learned only 3% of children in the United States have this
type of rare pediatric cancer. Out of the 350 children total diagnosed per
year, only 175 children have a survival rate past 5 years. The Potvin
family is devastated by this crushing prognosis, yet have promised not stop
fighting the odds till their precious twin daughter, Ellie, is cured of all
cancer.
Mission
In honor of Ellie’s fight for her life, and her kind
giving spirit that touches everyone she meets, the mission of the “Lift Up Ellie

hourly care needed to act as her bedside nurse, caretaker, best friend, home
school teacher and Mommy. The Potvin Family has no control on the number of days they will blessed with Ellie’s joy filled spirit on earth. But the
family’s mission is to make everyday the best possible day of her life and

cancer cells within her small body.
