Adeline "Addie Mae" Underhill was diagnosed with DIPG just after her 7th birthday on July 30th, 2017. She fought fiercely for 22 months, never letting the cancer destroy her amazing sense of humor, love for her friends and family, and desire to help others. Addie was a little hooligan that sparkled like the most amazing little unicorn and she left a little bit of that sparkle with everyone she came across. Her giggle and smile would absolutely light up any room. Her love for her brothers, Skyler and Xander, was immeasurable. She had a love for all animals, especially the ones she had here on the farm. She gained her angel wings on May 21st, 2019. She was deeply loved by all those who knew her and is missed even more. 

She wanted to do anything she could to prevent other kids from getting DIPG in the future, including donating her tumor to research. We picked up that torch for her and do everything WE can to prevent DIPG from continuing to be underfunded and under researched.
