The story of young Lily Rosploch battling cancer has captured the hearts of the Illinois Valley. There was some very uplifting news regarding Lily yesterday.
A video was posted on the “Rally for Lilly” Facebook page featuring Lily and her dad Mike announcing she was coming home to La Salle. Rosploch has been undergoing chemotherapy for the last several weeks at St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. She’s fighting a form of cancer called Neuroblastoma.
Thousands of people in the Illinois Valley have come together to raise money for the Rosploch family, doing everything from dress sales to selling Lilly-themed shirts at high school games.
