Help Violet Kick Cancers Butt!

Donation protected














If you have ever had the pleasure of meeting Violet, you've likely discovered your spirit animal. Violet is always smiling everywhere she goes she brings laughter or makes someone close by smile. Violet Denise has a unique ability to find joy in the hardest of times and beauty in the smallest of things, she is the definition of a free spirit.

This year Violet started kindergarten she's always so excited to share what she did at school, she loves her brothers Ashton and Briar and her big sister Rosie her coffee dates with mom Bailey Boon, and her Toy R Us and "Turkey" store outings with her Dad Adam Deforest.

Over the past 72 hours, Bailey, Adam, Violet's siblings and Violets' lives have been turned upside down, Violet hadn't been feeling well and what was hoped to be possibly low iron came back to be what no parent ever wants to hear cancer.

Violet was diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia on November 13 2023. B-ALL is a type of cancer that affects the white blood cells it causes rapid growth of abnormal B-lymphocyte cells in the bone marrow.

Violet was sent to Sick-Kids Toronto Ontario yesterday, where the nurses and doctors will be working on helping her kick cancer's butt! Treatment typically involves chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and sometimes stem cell transplantation.
Right now, Violet is not healthy enough to undergo chemotherapy yet, she is currently receiving infusions to get her hemoglobin up so she can receive chemo treatment.

Childhood cancer is a devastating and heart-wrenching experience for any parent to go through. The pain and fear of seeing a child suffer and endure medical procedures are unimaginable. It's a situation that no parent should ever have to face.

Violet and Bailey are staying at Sick-Kids in Toronto for medical treatments, Adam Deforest has been commuting to support Bailey and Violet during their hospital stay.Today is day two and the costs of travel, food, and accommodations are adding up quickly.

Adam and Bailey have been faced with one of the most difficult situations life can throw at you but unfortunately, life doesn't pause, Violet is one of four siblings the financial obligation of caring for three children at home doesn't stop, and bills still come in while most parents around this time of the year are stressed about Christmas Adam and Bailey are being faced with childhood cancer. I am seeking donations to help Adam and Bailey during this unthinkable time to use to ease some of the family's financial stress. Anything counts as something! if you're not able to donate please keep Violet and her family in your thoughts and prayers.
