Tashawn's Medical/Education Fund
Donation protected
On November 24, 2015, my son Tashawn Manning was admitted to the hosptial because of a bout of pneumonia that was not improving. Following a full blood work up and a biopsy of his bone marrow, on Thanksgiving morning, November 26, 2015 my family was delivered totally unexpected news about my 17 year old son condition. He was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukimia( AML). Leukimia is a cancer of the blood-forming cells that are produced in the bone marrow. Only 1 out of every 5 children who have Leukimia will have AML, as it is a rare form of Leukimia. This cancer is not heriditary and scientist do not know the exact cause.
This news was totally unexpected. It was only days prior, my son was finishing up his gruling online classes in order to graduate from high school and enroll into college early. He was on the path to begin his football career on the next level, at Auburn University, where he was to start in January 2016.
While the treatment prognosis for my son is between 95 and 98 % curable, this treatment will require multiple trips each week back and forth to the hospital, various doctor appointments, multiple medications, medical supplies, and a special diet items to prevent germs and bacteria from making him sick while he is being treated.
Many friends, school mates and family members have been wanting to know how they can help and show support for Tashawn. Well, with his treatment, we will have to pay out of pocket an absorbant amount for the next 2.5 years, to cover all medical expenses.
It would mean so much to us, if we were able to raise money to help cover some of the cost. We are asking for anyone who can and would like to help, please help by dontating to this go fund me account. The treatment for my son has already began, and we could use assistance with the cost as soon as today. No amount is too big or too small.
My son means the world to me and my family. He is a great kid, he is humble and has done everything a parent could ask of a child. We are truly blessed to have such a postive prognosis to work toward and are very thankful for any help as we journey down this long road of fighting cancer.
We sincerely thank each of you who decide to share this with others, those who decide to donate, and those who simply keep us in prayer. We Thank You! #Teammanning # Alwayswinning
