Cancer is one of the most terrifying words a family can hear. Leaving most with a big pit in their stomach knowing what the future may hold. Chemotherapy is a harsh and weakening treatment that affects everyone differently. 3-year-old Mable Franks from Prior Lake Minnesota has been undergoing chemotherapy for two-thirds of her life.

All of the treatments became ‘normal’ for little Mable, but all of that was going to change.

After her two-year cancer battle, Mable was finally going to take her last chemotherapy pill. That means for a big celebration! Unfortunately with the spread of COVID-19, a party wasn’t looking very likely. But, that wasn’t going to stop all of Mable’s family and friends from throwing a socially distanced festivity!

Mable was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when she was just 14 months old.

She had been undergoing chemotherapy for two years intravenously and her last treatment would be taken as a pill. Mable’s bravery is undeniable as she never stopped fighting while trying to be a normal 3-year-old at the same time. Although traumatic experiences like chemo would seem to dim the light of a child, Mable keeps her spirits high.

After two long years, Mable can finally put the past behind her enjoy being 3!

To celebrate the monumental news Mable’s friends and family brought a parade to her cul-de-sac. Firetrucks and cars were decorated in her honor while friends carried signs and balloons to remind Mable just how fearless she is. Signs read #TeamMable, We Love Mighty Mable, & No More Chemo.

Mable waved to all of the familiar faces driving by celebrating her brave fight.

Bring on the tissues, because we couldn’t be more proud of little Mabel! Mable’s grandmother Joan Franks told KARE11,

“We just felt we had to do something to let her know how proud we are and what a warrior and survivor she’s been,”

Mable’s parents were so moved by their incredible support system.

It’s been a long uphill battle and Mabel finally gets to live the normal life she deserves. Mable’s mother Meagan Franks told KARE11,

“It’s really all she’s known, since she was 14 months old, she’s been going through treatments,”

No way was COVID-19 going to stop the partying from being had.

Family and friends honked their horns with glee knowing that Mabel can finally kiss cancer goodbye! Mable’s dad held her proudly in his arms while Mable’s smile lit up the whole cul-de-sac.

This beautiful celebration will warm your heart with joy.

Meagan Franks told KARE11 after the marvelous parade,

“I’m just really grateful and we’ve had an amazing support system, as you can see. It’s very emotional.”

Tears swelled in her mother’s eyes knowing the love and support her family has is endless. Mable is one lucky girl in all kinds of ways.

Her story reminds us to be grateful for every day we have.

Mable’s brave spirit is so strong and we’re overjoyed to know that she can finally enjoy her days without chemotherapy!
