Medical Expenses

Hi, my name is Madeleine Peraza; I am fundraising on behalf of Kaylee America Rodriguez.

Recently we have been struck with the petrifying news of Kaylee having cancer. This has impacted everyone due to the fact that Kaylee has been an athlete her whole life. Kaylee has impacted many by being the first girl on team Panama 12u, Four-Time All Miami Dade county first team, a six-time district Champion in Softball and 2-time district champion in soccer; in other words, a total beast. She succeeds in everything she does due to how decided and driven she is. Kaylee excelled and pushed hard, which granted her the opportunity to attend the University of Michigan. Kaylee has impacted the softball world but has left an even greater impact on the people around her as she is one of the best human beings I have ever come across. Kaylee has been a fantastic daughter and sister to her brothers Kassem and Keanu. Last year, her brother Keanu (17) was diagnosed with Burkitt's Lymphoma and fought and beat it on October 27th, 2021. On September 7th, 2022, we got the results no one wants to get, especially a young collegiate athlete- an MRI depicting two tumors. Last year Kaylee complained of hip pain; for those who know Kaylee, pain or hurt isn't a word in her vocabulary, nothing ever hurts. The news has struck everyone impacting coaches, teammates, friends, and family due to the recency of having Keanu beat cancer. We are asking for your prayers and for your respect of privacy to help Kaylee focus on beating cancers ass. We are also kindly and graciously asking for help covering the cost of school, medical bills, medicine, transportation, and other expenses while she is in the hospital, as Kaylee's friend, your support and just love for this amazing family. Over the past few years, I have gotten to know the Rodriguez/Gonzalez family on and off the field, who have included me in their family. To help this family and pray to keep them safe. Thank you, and God bless you all.
