Hi my name is Jessica my son cayson is 2 years old he was having fever for a week and got blood work done and his white blood cell count and platelet count are low doctors have no idea what is wrong with him or why he is having fevers for so many days he is currently getting a biopsy done of his bone marrow to check for leukemia and other cancers
any funds will go to him and for his family since I’m a single mom and will be out of work while he is in the hospital
will give updates as I get them
Update: Cayson had to get a bone marrow biopsy yesterday haven’t got results back from that yet
His hemoglobin and platelets blood counts are still low they will be doing a blood transfusion today
His white blood cell count is still low they have tested for many types of infections and all have came back negative so still playing the waiting game to get answers
Update: we got the biopsy results back
Cayson tested positive for acute lymphoblastic leukemia
He will have blood transfusions of red
blood cells today and transfusions of platelets tomorrow and will go through a minor surgery to get the portacath out in for chemo
And he will start chemo on Tuesday

Cayson had surgery to get his portacath put in

This has been the hardest 4 days that I have ever been through being away from my oldest son (he’s 4) and him not really understanding why mommy and his baby brother have to stay here

I will be not working during this to be with cayson with the hardest thing he will ever have to go through and being just turned 2 years old no little one should have to go through this so he needs his family !
He needs any and all support through this tough journey he is about to go through ! Nothing is too little
We are so so thankful for everyone who takes the time to read his and story and share it with the world
Cayson is the most entertaining 2 year olds you would ever meet you just look at him and he just smiles at you to make you laugh
