Harper’s battle
Donation protected
On Thursday’s February 15, 2024 a parents worst nightmare happened to Tiffany and Joe. After going back and forth with doctors for 2 months and being told it was just a virus after finding numerous lumps on their 7 year old daughters neck. Tiffany told the pediatrician she thinks it’s time to see a specialist. Thank goodness for her motherly instincts she knew something wasn’t right. That night Harper was admitted into the hospital and had a biopsy done that next morning. A few days later they received the news no parents wants to hear. Harper has cancer, she has Lymphoma. The doctors had told Tiffany and Joe this will be a long road and it will be about 2 1/2 years of a battle. Harper will be admitted into the hospital again next week and begin her treatment. Depending on how fast her levels go up Harper could be in the hospital for up to a month. With that being said Joe will have to take a leave of absence from work to 1. be next to her daughters and Tiffany’s side 2. Joe and Tiffany will have to take turns being home to care for Harpers older 4 siblings, but to also not bring germs to the hospital to chance Harper getting sick with no immune system. The money that will be donated will be going towards traveling expenses to and from chemo (in Westchester), bills, and food. Please keep their family in your thoughts and prayers.
