    Adam Koessler is living every father's worst nightmare. His 2-year-old daughter, Rumer Rose, is fighting Stage 4 neuroblastoma, a type of cancer with a just a 50 percent survival rate. Koessler tried everything to help his little girl, including a natural treatment involving organic/gluten free home-cooked food, alkaline water, and essential oils.
