Support for Brynn's Leukemia Fight

Dear friends, family, and those whose lives have been touched by Brynn,

I am reaching out to you on behalf of my niece, Brynn (age 9) and her family. Brynn has recently received the challenging diagnosis of Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). ALL is a rapidly progressing form of leukemia that affects early cells, developing into a specific type of white blood cell known as lymphocytes.

Throughout November and December, Brynn courageously faced a series of illnesses, never fully recovering. Three days after celebrating Christmas, still feeling unwell and experiencing persistent weight loss, Brynn's father took her back to urgent care to investigate the unyielding flu-like symptoms. A subsequent blood test delivered the heart-wrenching news that no parent ever wants to hear—possible leukemia. Brynn was immediately transported to the hospital for confirmation through a bone marrow biopsy. On December 29th, the diagnosis was confirmed: ALL.

The prognosis is very promising, but it'll be a long road for Brynn and her family. Her treatment plan entails two and a half years of intense chemotherapy followed by less intense chemotherapy, depending on her body's response.

Since Brynn's diagnosis, many people have reached out and have been asking for ways to support her and the family during this time. Any emotional or financial support is greatly appreciated as we navigate through this journey.

Anything donated will go directly to support Brynn with her recovery cost and will help relieve some financial stress in the months to come so that all the focus can be on Brynn's recovery. Every little bit goes a long way! If you're unable to donate, please, keep our family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you everyone for all the prayers and support we’ve been getting.
