Ella's Journey of Hope
Donation protected
We would like to introduce you to Ella, a sweet, vibrant 3-year-old! She loves to swim, color and play with her sister, Lilly. Ella also enjoys reading with her parents, snuggling her stuffed animals, and chasing after her dog, Lois.
Ella's parents took her to the hospital on February 4 after she complained of headaches sporadically for about 2 weeks. The neurologist ordered an emergency CT scan, and like a brick wall her family's world came crumbling down; a mass on her brain stem was discovered. She was moved to PICU, where doctors did an MRI, and that evening sweet Ella was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG), which is a very rare, aggressive, and inoperable brain cancer. There is currently no cure for DIPG, and it is terminal, barring a MIRACLE, which we are all begging for.
Though the shock and pain is still fresh, we would like to provide Ella's family with some financial support as they seek treatment. The hope is to relieve some stress and allow them to continue spending precious time with Ella and Lilly during this difficult time.
We ask that, even if you are not able to donate, to please keep Ella and her family in your prayers. At this point all we ask is for a miracle!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read about sweet Ella Bella and her family.
