The Skuches', a Coast Guard family, have been through a lot after their 5-month-old daughter, Grace, was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive tumor called Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumor or AT/RT. Grace is now eight months old and is continuing chemotherapy treatments to ensure the cancer cells are killed off. (U.S Coast Guard video by Petty Officer 3rd Class Ali Flockerzi.)
