Hi my name is Esma and I raising money for my nephew Alen. Alen is a 5 year old autistic boy who has recently been hospitalized and put on life support while we figure out what all is going on in his little body.
On January 6th Alen went into the emergency room for a high fever swollen face and swollen lymph nodes. From there we learned that he has contracted the virus mononucleosis. He was placed on steroids and saw some improvement. The next morning Alen started to decline and we found out his liver was lacking proteins. Alen was then transferred over to St. Louis children’s hospital for better care.
At St. Louis children’s hospital we learned that Alen has swollen lymph nodes throughout his body which concerned the doctors that he may be suffering with lymphoma. While we are still awaiting results from the biopsy to find out if it is cancerous Alen has had some serious scares. From being place on a breathing tube, to having to be resuscitated. He is a strong boy and fighting every day.
Alen will be staying in the hospital for a while till he starts to recover. He has an amazing support system behind him from his parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. But the amount of bills that will be coming Alen's parents could use any help that they can get.
Thank you all for taking the time to read about my nephews story. We are praying long and hard for a speedy recovery and better news!
