\u201cThere\u2019s no easy way to say this but late last year our daughter Whimsy got diagnosed with cancer,\u201d she said in the video<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nara opened up about the moment she and husband Lucky Blue Smith first noticed something was wrong with their toddler.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we saw something suspicious on her, we took her to the ER and they didn\u2019t quite know what to make of it,\u201d she explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we took her into our pediatrician, I just remember him going really quiet and calm \u2026 My heart dropped in that moment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know whether it was my gut telling me something or just a mom\u2019s intuition, but the first thing that I felt was she has cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple took Whimsy to a children\u2019s hospital for further testing and after X-rays, ultrasounds and a biopsy, they got a diagnosis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey immediately called us and said that she had cancer, told us it had spread and that she needs to come and start chemo treatments<\/a> immediately,\u201d Nara said.<\/p>\n

The influencer<\/a>, who has become popular on social media for her \u2018trad wife\u2019 content<\/a>, said this has been a difficult time for their family and Whimsy has been their priority.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nara said it took a lot of testing before a diagnosis, when doctors confirmed that Whimsy Lou did have cancer. \u00a0Instagram\/@naraaziza<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of you have probably realised that I\u2019ve been posting a little less and this is the reason why,\u201d she added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving found all of this out and navigating this while postpartum, also loving and caring for our other kids at home, also being in the hospital with Whimsy a lot and balancing work on top of that has been really challenging.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nara and Lucky are also parents to Rumble Honey, five, Slim Easy, four, and nine-month-old Fawnie Golden. Lucky also has another daughter Gravity, who he shares with ex Stormi Bree.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Homemade author admitted she struggles \u201con a daily basis\u201d to find balance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSome days are a little easier, some days are really hard, and all I can do is try my best and show up in all those areas in the best way that I can,\u201d Nara added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She also explained that her intention behind sharing the video was in the hope that it would bring others comfort and for some people, it might push them to get something checked out they\u2019ve been avoiding.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThankful for each and every nurse and doctor along our journey who helped us get through and out the other end,\u201d she captioned the post.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The mum-of-four did not clarify where Whimsy\u2019s health currently stands in the video.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nara and Lucky have been together since 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The couple got engaged that same year, and tied the knot in 2020 before starting to grow their family.<\/p>\n
