Teen's Nosebleed Leads To Parents' Cancer Diagnosis

A teen's trip to the doctor for a nosebleed led to potentially life-saving diagnoses for three members of a Texas family.

Crystal Enns’ parents were first alarmed when in 2013 the teen had a serious nosebleed that wouldn’t stop. But they were astounded when, after a trip to the doctor, Crystal was diagnosed with a serious kidney disease called juvenile nephronophthisis. According to the National Institute of Health, the disease causes “inflammation and scarring of the kidneys and ultimately leads to a life-threatening failure of kidney function.”
