An incredible opportunity for Ella awaits her this summer via Young Naperville Singers (YNS).

Her spirits, however, remained optimistic. On a Thursday, Ella entered Lurie’s Children’s hospital in Chicago…ready for her life to be changed. When the surgery team was finished, Ella was placed in the PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit) primarily to monitor her respiration and pain for several days.
