Ritratto di gruppo per la festa della loro Quinceanera alle bambine affette da leucemia di un ospedale di Managua, Nicaragua

In this photo taken Saturday Aug. 27, 2011, leukemia patient Maria Jose Martinez, 14, sitting left, poses for a group portrait with other patients from La Mascota Children’s Hospital as they celebrate their Quinceanera, or 15th birthday, at a hotel in Managua, Nicaragua. The Association of Parents of Children with Leukemia and Cancer organized a mass Quinceanera for all the female patients at La Mascota Children’s Hospital who turn 15-years-old in 2011. Martinez is in her second cycle of chemotherapy and has had three operations since she was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia six months ago. (AP Photo/Esteban Felix)
