Support Brynley's Second Battle with Leukemia
Donation protected
Hi everyone. For those that aren't aware, my name is Gina and I am friends with Katie. We met through this challenging pediatric cancer journey almost 4 years ago, as my daughter was also diagnosed with Leukemia one year before Brynley was. (Her first time).
As another cancer mama, I know the physical, mental, and cost-related toll it takes on a family once, let alone twice.
Brynley is 5 years old and has relapsed with High Risk B-Cell leukemia. For those that don't know, Leukemia treatment is 2 1/2 years long and Brynley will have to endure countless chemos, spinal taps, hospital stays, and so much more. Currently, they are trying to get her into induced remission by day 36, so they know what the rest of her roadmap will look like. It could mean a bone marrow transplant, but those answers are unanswered as of now. This is her SECOND TIME facing cancer and this is completely unfair. She should be playing outside, swimming in pools, enjoying being cancer-free, but unfortunately, she is not.
I am asking for everyone to please help make their lives a little easier. Whatever you could donate, no amount is too small, will help tremendously. Funds will go to daily meals for their family, items to make Brynley's life easier, funds for medical costs, etc.
For everyone who wants to follow Brynley's journey, I will update as much as I can on this GoFundMe, but she also has a "Brave like Brynley" Facebook page. Please follow along there as well. ❤️
Thank you all so much.
