Help cover chemo related costs for Bryleigh Harmon
Donation protected
On March 12, 2020, my precious 2 year old niece, Bryleigh, was taken to the doctor to be seen for what was believed to be a UTI. Instead, after some tests, they were told she had a large mass on her right kidney and was immediately admitted into the hospital in Topeka, KS. From there she was transferred to Kansas City for surgery, and just 4 days later on March 16th, the kidney and tumor were removed. Sweet B handled surgery well and she was released a few days later.
The pathology results came back as stage 2 cancer, which requires weekly chemotherapy. Today will be round #4. They are unclear just how long she will need chemo at this point, but has heard anywhere from 5 months to 9 months. They are suppose to be getting a better idea today.
They are still waiting on the genetic testing of the tumor and due to the virus they have no idea when that will be. That is what will determine if a longer, more aggressive treatment will be needed.
Bryleigh is 2. She doesn't understand what's going on. What she does understand is she can't go to daycare, play with her friends or get visits from anyone.
I'm sure you can imagine how this rocked their family's world. They just started schooling from home for B's older brother because of COVID-19, Trista doing her own schooling and working, then this. Now Trista is unable to work because B's oncologist doesn't want to chance COVID-19 coming into the house.
This is going to be a long and expensive road. Please give what you can and share this. Keep the prayers coming.
