Earlier this month, Smith shared that Whimsy, 2, had been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/article\/nara-smith-2-year-old-daughter-cancer.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">diagnosed late last year<\/a> and received chemotherapy. In her latest video, the influencer said that the toddler had finished treatment and that the whole process showed her how taxing the health-care system can be for families.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.thecut.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmrp72m5w00163b7c3v5rejei@published\" data-word-count=\"93\">\u201cLucky and I have been going through this and processing it for the last eight months, and we were debating on even sharing such a private part of our life,\u201d Smith said, referencing her husband, Lucky Blue Smith, with whom she shares three other children. \u201c[We] wanted to wait until she was done with treatment and us knowing what the outcome of her situation would be before sharing it and even finding the words to share it. Now that she\u2019s finally in remission, it felt like I could find the words to share.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.thecut.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmrp72m7t00173b7chwa8hoju@published\" data-word-count=\"47\">\u201cThe whole point of me sharing our experience was to shed light on what so many families go through and battle privately,\u201d Nara Smith continued. \u201cGoing through chemo treatments opened my eyes to how expensive medical care is and what a toll it takes on families specifically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"clay-paragraph\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"www.thecut.com\/_components\/clay-paragraph\/instances\/cmrp72m9d00183b7c7365ullz@published\" data-word-count=\"61\">Smith said that she was working on finding the right charities and foundations to support, but in the meantime, she shared four GoFundMe pages for children fighting cancer. \u201cChildhood cancer showed us the hope strangers can give.
