10/28/25: at 8 pm our daughter Alina passed away after a brave fight with leukemia cancer. she took her last breath, and peace finally found her. for the first time, her mother held her with no pain, no wires, only love.

update: 10/14/25:Me, my wife and doctors had a meeting today to put our girl in comfort care. Preparing for our daughter end of life have been unbearable, unthinkable, and unbelievable. There are no words to describe the constant intense pain and hurt, that we have felt as parents .Life teaches us that we will one day bury our parents but it does not ever prepare us for losing our children.

UPDATE 8/26/25: after 1 and half year of cancer treatment. her body stop responding to her treatment and her health start to become worse. every other day she would bleed non stop from her nose mouth. doctor told us she dont have much time to live after this month if her body doesn't respond. every day when she wakes up she would always tell us that she loves us as her parents and that no matter what she will always loves her siblings..and we are praying for merecle for our daughter.

UPDATE

4/24/25:

After a month of treatment at the hospital. Doctor told me she still got 88 % leukemia in her body. So there will be no bone marrow transplant for her. Not the news we wanna hear but we will continue to pray for her. Shes a strong fighter.

4/11/25:

For the past 12 months, Alina has endured round after round of chemotherapy, pain, and exhaustion.at night,she cries out in agony, screaming "Mommy, help me kv mob os kub kub o."! The chemo treatment is hurting her body it feels like the body is burning, her head is sweating everyday. Her tiny body is still fighting cancer for 1 year, but every day it grows weaker.everyday I hold her small hand, and feel her trembling as She laying down with no strength to stand up and play with her other siblings she had no idea that her cancer is almost taken over her body each every day . my heart breaks into pieces and. I want to tell her everything will be okay.

That I’ll save her, no matter what. But I’m terrified and running out of time.Just a few months ago, I truly believed we were almost through this.That Alina would beat cancer.But one week after finishing treatment, the doctors told us the worst. The cancer had come back and this time, it was even more aggressive.It had spread to her eye, and her condition was getting worse by the day.

They said there was nothing more they could do for her here in few month if her body doesnt respond to the treatment .every single day: She wants to live. She just want to be a happy kid again and go outside to play with her 2 siblings.

Please… don’t leave us alone.

**-'**÷÷*** Hello kind souls peb ib tsoom hmoob o thank you for helping our family.

My daughter, Alina Xiong, is a sweet and shy 3-year-old who usually has a bright smile on her face. She loves spending time playing outside with her two siblings and especially enjoys going on long walks with her mom.

On February 2024, Alina suddenly developed a very high fever, along with red rashes and tiny red spots on her skin. We rushed her to the ER in our hometown, and soon after, she was airlifted by helicopter to Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock. There, we received the heartbreaking diagnosis: B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Doctors also discovered that Alina was born with just 27 chromosomes instead of the typical 46. This rare condition significantly reduces her ability to fight leukemia, but despite the odds, we remained hopeful

alongside an incredible medical team, believing in her strength and resilience. After months of intense treatment, we were overjoyed when Alina entered remission. Her doctor shared the wonderful news that no leukemia cells were showing up in her system. Unfortunately, just days after celebrating her 3rd birthday, on February 17, 2025, Alina became seriously ill again. Tests confirmed our worst fear, the leukemia had returned. Now, Alina is beginning another round of aggressive therapy and is scheduled to undergo a critical bone marrow transplant within the next two months. Her doctor gently told us that this will be her last chance to beat this disease. As the sole provider for our family, I’ll be stepping away from work to care for Alina full-time during her treatment. We are humbly asking for support during this incredibly difficult time. Any donations will go directly toward medical bills, daily expenses, and ensuring Alina’s comfort and care. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read Alina’s story and to those who are able to donate. Your kindness and support mean the world to us.
