Help Dahnelia beat acute lymphoblastic leukemia!!
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Nastacia, and I'm trying to raise funds for my niece, Dahnelia Davis, she is 4 years old and was diagnosed with a rare cancer called Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, a type of cancer that affects the bone marrow and production of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. Dahnelia was diagnosed with this type of cancer in July of 2022, just 2 months before she was supposed to start pre-kindergarten. Because of this disease, she is unable to go to school or live a normal life of a 4-year-old; she is sometimes unable to walk and suffers from intense pains in her back and legs. Dahnelia is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment, at the Bustamante Hospital for Children in Jamaica, to which she has to be admitted sometimes for weeks at a time. Due to the delicacy of her condition, her mother who is a single parent is unable to work because she needs to be with her daughter to provide constant care and comfort. After almost 10 months of chemotherapy, the hospital informed the family that Dahnelia's chemotherapy did not work as effectively as anticipated and that she is in urgent need of a bone marrow transplant to prevent the cancer from spreading even further. This surgery cannot be done on the island because of the lack of infrastructure in the country, and this life-saving procedure will have to be done internationally. This fundraiser was created to help with her medical expenses and the cost of her travel to India for treatment. Dahnelia is a bright young girl who is so hopeful and has such a promising future ahead of her. Please help us help Dahnelia fight this disease and give her a chance at life and a future. Thank you.
