Kaitlynn’s fight against gray zone lymphoma
Donation protected
On September 26,2022 our daughter/ daughter in law, Kaitlynn's, life was forever changed. After a trip to the emergency room with an assumption of pneumonia, instead she was diagnosed with Lymphoma. A biopsy and further imaging tests were completed in the following days. On October 14, 2022 her world was completely rocked with a diagnosis of Stage 3B Gray Zone Lymphoma. This is a very rare and aggressive form of Cancer. It is very abnormal because it has clinical features of both classic Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. With this being such an aggressive disease it requires a very aggressive strategy for treatment. The day that she received the official diagnosis they immediately began chemoimmunotherapy treatment. This requires 24 hour a day for six days of inpatient treatment. She will undergo this cycle six times over the next six months at which time they will complete a bone marrow biopsy and begin radiation therapy.
Kaitlynn is only 24 years old. She has an 18 month old daughter, Fraeya, who desperately needs her mommy to fight and win this battle. We are all in this fight together with her and doing everything and anything we can to support her and Fraeya emotionally, physically, and financially. It's going to take a village. We are in the process of organizing a benefit event to help with the cost of medical care and the care of her daughter while she is fighting for her life. We are seeking businesses and individuals who would be able to provide goods and/or services that can be used to help host the event or to be used as part of a silent auction. Any and all help with this benefit event is so greatly appreciated beyond what words can say.
