December 17, 2018 turned out to be one of the hardest days of our lives. My niece Natalia Melendez who is 8 years old was diagnosed with cancer. Now just a couple of days later we were informed it is Stage 4 B Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. She will begin Chemotherapy the day after Christmas and will continue thru phases for the next 6-8 months.

Although insurance is covering a good majority of her chemo and treatments, I am asking for help in order for my sister to be able to be there with her daughter during this difficult time. My sister Cristina is a single parent who has tried her hardest to make sure her children have their needs met. This is unfortunately yet another bump in the road. Donations would help with transportation, food for new changes in Natalia’s restricted diet, bills that will likely rise, and hats or wigs for her once chemo begins its harsh course.

We are a very prideful family but I am choosing to put that aside for the benefit of my sister and niece. Anything you give is much appreciated. Prayers are always welcomed. Thank you! #TeamNatalia
