A 7-year-old from Orange has died months after she was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer.
In January, doctors at Children's Hospital Orange County diagnosed Sarah Valdivia with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma or DIPG. There is no cure.
The tumor was inoperable and usually occurs in kids between the ages of four to 11, affecting movement as it wraps itself around the brainstem. Sarah was one of only a few hundred children a year in the U.S. who get that diagnosis.
