Support Jada’s Battle with Leukemia

Donation protected
Just days after her 3rd birthday, our sweet babygirl Jada’Lynn is facing something a child shouldn’t ever have to experience. Jada is a sweet little girl who loves being around her loved ones, laughing and learning. In the span of 12 days our world was turned upside down when Jada got diagnosed with Leukemia.

About 2 weeks prior to her diagnosis we noticed unexplained bruises that seemed like blood clots to us, which led us to the emergency room. From that moment on everything happened all so quickly and was terrifying, we went from triage to the ICU in what seems to be in a blink of an eye. Jada has B-Cell (ALL) which is a type of blood cancer that requires immediate and aggressive treatment. Jada is now undergoing intensive chemotherapy, with a hospital stay of 4-5 weeks and many difficult months ahead.

 Watching Jada go thru this is heartbreaking and so overwhelming as parents we wish we could take this from her, in the 12 days we’ve been here Jada has shown us how much of a WARRIOR she is and HOW BRAVE and courages she is. She has given us STRENGTH that I didn’t know I had. Despite all the test, blood work and discomfort she’s in she’s managed to smile, laugh and still be her sassy little self even on the toughest day. She brightens up our day every second we look into her eyes. The treatment plan will be a long journey up to 2 years or more of care, including chemotherapy, medications and potential complications. We are doing everything we can to stay STRONG for her. We may incur some medical expenses, and I (Mom) put my career on hold to give the necessary care to my daughter.

As parents we need help. We are reaching out to our family and friends, community for support during this challenging circumstances. Every donation will go towards Jada’s Medical expenses, medications, travel to and from the hospital, as well as bills and everyday expenses. No amount is too small, and even those who cannot donate can help by sharing our situation, and praying for her.

 Our family is grateful for those who have been by us and continued to pray that Jada’Lynn MAKES a FULL RECOVERY and can grow up healthy and strong as every child deserves. We also hope that sharing Jada’s story will help other parents not to underestimate similar symptoms, so that these illnesses can be diagnosed in time and treated fully.

 Thank you everyone,
 The Smith/Keenan Family.
