Doctors Can't Explain Why this Texas Girl’s Tumor Disappeared

An 11-year old’s brain tumor went from inoperable to invisible.

In June 2018, Roxli Doss of Central Texas was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor called diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, or DIPG.

According to Dr. Virginia Harrod with Dell Children’s Medical Center, DIPG is very rare and causes “decreased ability to swallow, sometimes vision loss, decreased ability to talk, [and] eventually difficulty with breathing."

All the Doss family could do was pray for a miracle—and, to their astonishment, their prayers were answered.

"When I first saw Roxli's MRI scan, it was actually unbelievable. The tumor is undetectable on the MRI scan, which is really unusual,” Dr. Harrod told KVUE ABC.

Roxli is now back to doing what she loves—riding horses. Her parents say they thank God every day.

Magis Center
The Magis Center's Mission: We exist to turn the rising tide of unbelief in our culture through contemporary, rational, and science-based evidence. Many young people today have the preconceived notions that science and faith are mutually exclusive, that there is no such thing as a soul, and that God is just an illusion of hope. There is a great need for a practical defense of the Catholic Faith that meets the surrounding culture in materialism and scientism. As more young people leave the faith, Magis Center seeks to answer the conflict of science and faith with sound scientific research and clearly communicate the reasonability and truthfulness of the Catholic Faith.
