Support for Sadie and family

UPDATE 5/26/2023

Sadie has a rare lymphoma cancer which is part of why it took so long for final results. She has PTCL-NOS Perihperal T-Cell Lymphoma- NOS. She also has HLH. She will be starting chemo today. She will have to have chemo for 6 months and then at the end of 6 months she will be having a bone marrow transplant. Her bone marrow transplant will be an autologous transplant. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers. #sadiestrong ️️️ Sadie also will be doing Make A Wish after her transplant. The nurse has got her excited to start looking and thinking about what she wants to do when her immune system allows her.

***UPDATE*** 5/23/2023

Sadie has lymphoma cancer. They are waiting on her results from yesterdays surgery to see exactly what type and then we will start on chemo. This was very hard to take and very emotional news for us. She’s super upset about losing her hair. I just don’t even know what to say. My heart is breaking. Again, I can’t thank y’all enough for the continued prayers and thoughts and financial support at this time. Cash app $TracyEllett. Love y’all all. ♥️♥️❤️❤️

***UPDATE***. 5/19/2023

Sadie had a pet scan today to check for cancer. She def has HLH they are just trying to figure out the why. During the pet scan they noticed enlarged lymph nodes. Lymphoma is a cancer that can cause HLH. They were going to start chemo and steroids to treat HLH until the findings on todays pet scan. She will be having surgery Monday to remove a lymph node that is enlarged to see if it is cancerous. They don’t want to treat HLH and beat it and then 6 months from now see cancer come back in the lymphnodes. HLH is not a cancer BTW. (This was confusing for me). While performing surgery on Monday they will also do another bone marrow biopsy to make sure they didn’t miss anything on the first one and they are also going to go ahead and put in a port for when she starts chemo.

We are still waiting on blood results that we sent out and results from the spinal tap today. The doctors said she’s like an enigma and they don’t want to just push the pieces together. They want to make sure they are putting them together just right.
Thank you for all the love and continued prayers as we are going through this unexpected and hard time. ❤️❤️❤️


Hi, I'm fundraising on behalf of a wonderful brave young girl and her family. Instead of enjoying her last couple of weeks of school before summer break and hanging out with friends, Sadie is dealing with major health issues that are out of her control. Starting in April, Sadie was moved from our local hospital to Levines children's hospital where doctors found a build up of blood putting pressure on her brain. Doctor's then performed decompression surgery to relieve the pressure. A CT scan was performed and after some days of monitoring Sadie she was sent home. After a huge relief of being sent home, Mom (Tracy), dad (Matt), and older sister (Kiersten) all waited on Sadie hand and foot. Tracy noticed over a short period her daughter was not progressing as expected. She Lost weight (20lbs), was not able to build up strength, had little to no appetite, and had developed a fever. Now Sadie is back in the hospital.

Doctors found Sadie has a blood disorder that prevents her blood from clotting. Sadie will be undergoing further testing (blood transfusion, another MRI, and spinal tap) Doctors are now testing for leukemia.

Tracy and Matt are great parents and Sadies sister Kiersten is very compassionate so I know all of this is weighing heavy. During this difficult time, I want to provide the family with one less thing to worry about, so I am asking for donations to ease the family's financial worries.

Thank you.
