Backing Baby K
Donation protected
Our close friend is facing the unimaginable, his baby girl is sick. Recently diagnosed with Retinoblastoma, Baby K (3 years old), is embarking on her biggest fight yet. This family is facing the reality we would never wish anyone to be in. Our goal to is to offer support for all ancillary expenses they are facing so these parents can focus on what matters most, supporting and caring for their baby.
In order to give her the best chance of retaining her sight, she must travel monthly to Bascom Palmer at University of Miami. Unfortunately, this lifesaving and medically necessary treatment is out-of-network with their insurance, so the family is expecting to incur very high out-of-pocket costs.
To tell you more about this deserving family - Baby K is blessed with a wonderful mother and father and an older sister (8-years-old). Baby K's father is the hardest working man, who constantly shows up for others. He works in the medical field taking care of patients who are in need of respiratory services. Baby K's mother is an RN in the emergency room and the one who identified her daughter's cancer.
This diagnosis comes as a giant blow to this family after burying their grandfather, who sadly lost his battle with cancer, only just a month ago.
We are asking for your generosity and prayers to assist this family as they begin their long journey battling Baby K's Retinoblastoma diagnosis.
