"Little warrior girl. Sharing something this vulnerable wasn’t an easy decision, but seeing every message, prayer, story of a similar experience, and kindness has made it a little easier. To every family or parent walking through something heavy right now, we’re thinking of you too," she wrote.

Check out Nara's emotional post below:

In her previous video, Nara mentioned that her instinct made her rush their daughter to the ER. After no success at the ER, she took her daughter to the family paediatrician. Nara detailed the moment they were told about the cancer, saying her heart sank when the doctor went silent.

"He calmly told us to take her to the closest children's hospital and have them evaluate her further. After tests, ultrasounds, and finally a biopsy, they immediately called us and said she had cancer and it had spread and that she needs to come and start chemo treatment immediately," she said.
