In December 2025, Kiara was a typical 12 year old — playing violin, singing with the Northwest Girlchoir, reading everything she could get her hands on, and sharing her love of Harry Potter and The Owl House with her little sister, Victoria. Then knee pain changed everything. A referral to Seattle Children’s Hospital brought news no family should ever hear. Ewing Sarcoma, a rare bone cancer. The months that followed were filled with chemotherapy, hospital stays, and the emotional and financial strain of her dad Ken becoming her full-time care-giver. Early donations helped Kiara keep a piece of herself — a wig made from her own hair — and helped her family stay afloat on mom Jen’s part-time income. By August 2026, Kiara made it to the day of her bell ringing to mark the end of her treatment. She was ready to reclaim her life. But the latest scan at the last minute deliver a crushing blow: the cancer has spread to her leg, hip, back, and arm. Kiara must begin treatment again immediately. More chemotherapy, more biopsies, possibly radiation and maybe a clinical trial far from home. Her parents will once again step away from work to be by her side for every appointment, every difficult day, and every moment she needs them. Your support gives this family stability, time, and hope. It keeps them together. It lets Kiara focus on fighting! Thank you, truly, for standing with them.
