One-year-old warrior Tessa Hodgson, of Ottawa, Canada, has been battling cancer since she was just 3 months old. However, on Aug. 5, she celebrated her first birthday in grand style, with balloons and a pink princess dress; and most importantly she wore a beaming smile.
“Tessa is one year old today!” her mom, Rachel Pascas, posted on Facebook. “We are so proud of this warrior; she’s been through so much and she’s stronger than ever!”
