Alex's Army

PLEASE HELP US HELP THE FIGUEROA'S

Alexandra Figueroa is 15 years old and a freshman at Hendrick Hudson High School.  Alex is an honors student, an accomplished athlete, and a beautiful soul.  She is a loyal friend to so many, an amazing daughter and the most important person in her younger sister Madison's life.

On April 25, after discovering a mass on her shoulder that seemed to be growing rapidly,  Alex was diagnosed with metastatic Ewing's Sarcoma.  The cancer has metastasized to her lungs and Alex will begin aggressive chemotherapy and radiation immediately.  Alex will be admitted into Columbia Presbyterian for her treatments as to ensure the proper medical supervision throughout. 

We are asking for your help because, as you can imagine, Alex's parents, Jennifer and Rick, need to focus all of their energy on helping Alex through these treatments.  We would like to relieve them of as much financial burden as possible, as to avail them to fight beside Alex as  much as they are able.  Travel expenses alone will begin to add up quickly, as Alex will spend at least 8 days of every month in the hospital for the foreseeable future.

Anything you can possibly contribute, no matter how seemingly small, will be of great help to the family and deeply appreciated by all who love Alex.  If you are unable to contribute monetarily, please pray for Alex's recovery and for strength for her family and friends and please share this campaign.  Alex needs our help.  Let's show her what we can do when we come together in support of one another. 

If you would prefer to send a direct donation, please inquire as to where that can be forwarded.
