Girl beats rare disease with experimental drug, marrow transplant

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (via WOOD TV 8) — To see 2-year-old Mistha Jackson, you'd never know what she's been through.

"We'll look at pictures and it's like, 'Oh my gosh, we were there.' But when we were there. It was everything. It consumed us. That's all we knew," Mistha's mother Widline Jackson said.

Parenthood hit her and her husband Julius Jackson hard. Within just a few weeks of Mistha's birth, the little girl became very sick.

"When we found out she was sick, my parents came, her parents came and we prayed. Whatever happens, God's in control. I'm just going to do my best to do what I can do," Julius Jackson said.
