Laurel’s Leukemia Fund

Laurel was diagnosed with a form of Cancer called Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on 9/1/2022, just two weeks before her third birthday. She was then moved into the "High Risk" group when she failed to achieve remission during the first phase of treatment.

Although Laurel finally achieved remission months later, her journey is far from over. She faces ongoing treatment until at least 2025, along with many risks such as relapse and treatment-related complications. After that, she is very likely to have "late effect" symptoms that will need to be monitored for and managed throughout her life. These include relapse, secondary cancer, heart and lung weakness, and metabolic issues.

We're fortunate to have great insurance, but non-medical costs such as travel and food are on track to exceed $10,000 per year. They may rise even higher with inflation and unexpected complications with her treatment. So, we're swallowing our pride and asking for help. Every little bit is an enormous help to us.

All donations will be placed in a dedicated account and will be used for transportation, food, lodging, co-pays, and other needs related to her treatment and hospital stays. Any remaining amount after she "rings the bell" and finishes chemotherapy will be placed in a savings account specifically for future medical complications as a result of her treatment.

We love and appreciate you. Thank You.
