Known for her kind heart and infectious smile, Grace Eline of Gillette last year was diagnosed with Germinoma, a germ-cell brain tumor. In May 2018, she started cancer treatment.
Throughout the rest of the year, Grace stayed positive and strong, making the rounds in the hospital, cheering up other patients, and always wearing a smile for the caring medical professionals who treated her.
Grace recently finished chemotherapy and shows no evidence of the disease. She is determined to help other children who are fighting cancer.
The American Childhood Cancer Organization last October named Grace a gold ribbon hero, calling her a "little warrior" who exudes good vibes and positive energy.
"This year’s guests come from all different walks of life, and each has an incredible story to tell," the White House said in a statement. "No matter their background, each one has something important in common: They represent the very best of America."
