Teen mom diagnosed with cancer while pregnant has died
By Newsroom | April 25, 2019

A teenage mother, who was diagnosed with cancer while seven months pregnant, has died. Dana Scatton was just a few days shy of her 18th birthday when she welcomed baby girl Aries Marie in January of 2018. Just months earlier, in November, Scatton was diagnosed with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma or DIPG, an inoperable brain tumor.

“This morning shortly before 4am, Dana left us to be with the lord,” her family wrote on Facebook this week. “We may never have the right things to say to truly honor the amazing, smart, loving, caring, passionate, incredibly beautiful and free spirited mother, daughter, niece, sister, cousin, friend and independent woman Dana was every day.”

Scatton, the youngest of nine children, was given just three to nine months to live when she was diagnosed. 90 percent of those diagnosed with DIPG die within 18 months. Immediate treatment may have helped her to live longer than doctors expected, but radiation could have harmed her preborn daughter. Therefore, she chose to wait as long as she could before beginning treatment.

The husband, father, parents. siblings and family played what roles?
