Help Landon in his fight against Cancer and serve the Bailey Family
#LandonStrong
Landon is 8 years old. He loves Minecraft, playing with his two sisters (Taylor, age 11, and Cali, age 6), playing with his cousins, beating his dad (Robby) at video games, and, of course, he loves his mom.
On Friday, March 12, after experiencing episodes of vomiting and headaches, an ER visit and CT scan revealed that Landon had a brain tumor. Following the scan and the follow-up surgery, Landon and his family received the heartbreaking news that he has cancer.
Landon has medulloblastoma cancer with a subtype 3/4. He has had two brain surgeries —one to remove the tumor, and one to place a shunt to relieve pressure on the brain caused by fluid accumulation. Through daily physical therapy, they are working with him to help him regain mobility and speech. All of this has taken place at Duke Hospital where he has been receiving excellent care. However, Landon still has a difficult and daunting road ahead.
Landon and his mom must next travel to The Children’s Hospital in Philadelphia so he can begin receiving the next stage of his treatment—proton radiation. He and his mom will remain in Philadelphia for the next 2-3 months while he undergoes treatment, while his dad stays behind to care for his sisters.
In all, Landon will undergo at least 6-8 months of chemo and radiation, as well as intense physical therapy to regain mobility and speech.
To support Landon and his family through all of this, funds are being raised to help with the costs of travel, food, loss of income for Melissa and Robby as they take turns caring for Landon as well as his sisters.
All donations are greatly appreciated as we come together to love and support this family as best we can. Any donated amount will help take the financial burden and worry off of Melissa and Robby’s shoulders so they can keep their main focus on caring for Landon.
The final ask is for continued prayers for Landon, his family, and the medical teams tending to Landon. We pray that God would fully restore Landon’s body and provide a miracle of healing. However God chooses to work through this, please join us in praying fervently for Landon’s fight against this cancer, and for his family as they fight tirelessly on his behalf.
