( tw: illness, cancer )
Born with a weak heart, Aurelia Solis has always been just outside of deathโs grasp. Even before she had entered this world, there was little hope that she would survive on her own. The first child of two worried parents, they were told by doctors that it would likely be a miracle if their daughter live to see her first breath. It was a stressful time for pair, ultimately putting their marriage to the test. Prepared for the worst the day Elizabeth went into labor, they were almost brought to tears when Aurelia let out her first cry. However, their worry did not end there. After several weeks in the Intensive Care Unit and multiple surgeries later, it was clear that Aurelia would likely be sick the remainder of her life, however long that may be.
If the emotional trauma of it all wasn't enough, the medical bills alone almost sent the Solis family into financial ruin. If it wasn't for the strong community that rallied around them, there's no way they'd have been able to come back from it.
Growing up, Aurelia was constantly sick. From Colic to Measles, her parents were told that because of how traumatic her birth was โ her immune system would likely never be as strong as other kids. There were lots of childhood milestones that Aurelia missed out on due to the various doctor and hospital visits. At the age of five, Aurelia was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Through every treatment, her parents prayed and prayed. Despite barely clinging to life, Aurelia remained strong and thankfully, by the time of her eighth birthday, she entered remission. However, the damage to Manuel and Carmen's marriage was too hard to come back from.
They split up unceremoniously and bitterly when Aurelia was nine years old, leaving her to be ferried back and forth while they fought viciously over custody. Her father decided to move to Cape Cod for his work. For most of her life, Aurelia lived with her mother in New Jersey due to her father's work, with the occasion visits over the summer and winter breaks, whenever he had time off the fishing boat.
Returning back to regular life after spending years in and out of hospitals, Aurelia had a lust for life. She had big dreams of being the first of her family to go to college and there was no doubt what she would study. Without all the wonderful doctors and nurses who helped her through her cancer journey, Aurelia knew she wanted to study medicine. If there was any way she could be that support for someone suffering, she wanted to do that.
At fourteen, her mother remarried. Brian was nice enough and all Aurelia wanted was her mom to be happy, which he seemed to achieve. It wasn't long before there was news of a new arrival in the family. Her father, while somewhat emotionally distant, took his former wife moving on badly. And yet, he always seemed to brighten with his daughter would visit. Aurelia knew that her mother didn't need help. She had a new husband, a new family. Her father had nothing but his work, no one to look after him. When she could finally decide where she wanted to live, Aurelia moved to Cape Cod to live with her dad permanently.
They had a nice routine together. Manuel could be gone for weeks at a time on a work trip, leaving Aurelia to her own devices which never bothered her for a second. She was focused entirely on school, making sure she was getting the best grades possible to have the widest array of opportunities for college. When admissions rolled around, she applied to all the Ivys. Her parents would never be able to pay but there were plenty of scholarships she was eligible for. However, when the thought of leaving her dad all alone was soon to become a reality, she didn't have the heart to go.
A compromise was made.
She'd attend a smaller college in Aurora Bay, a small town on the coast where her father could get a job working the docks. The college fed right into the hospital there and had plenty of scholarship options, which would be easier to be accepted to. Accepted into pre-med, Manuel and Aurelia moved to a two-story in Fisher's Cove.
Her entire life is medicine, practically living in the library during the semesters. During the summer of her senior year of undergrad, Aurelia applied for an internship at the hospital which turned into a permanent position at the front desk. Never the type to let life get int the way of her dreams, her only goal in life is to become the best pediatric oncologist Aurora Bay has ever seen.
