Help Ease Hope's Journey to Recovery

Hi all,

My niece, Hope Flick, has been in the hospital for the past week for a very serious case of pneumonia in both of her lungs. She couldn't breathe and had to be on oxygen. She wasn't recovering, so had to be moved to a specialist in a different city.

There, the doctors ran additional tests and diagnosed her with leukemia-- the cancer appears to be the cause of her life-threatening lung condition. Yesterday, (the same day as her cancer diagnosis) she was flown to another city to start receiving immediate chemotherapy treatment. We're all hoping this will help stabilize her condition. We don't have much info about how long she'll have to stay there, and all of her family lives across the country in different states.

The diagnosis and transfers were very sudden, and now she's located in a completely different part of her state (about 6 hours away from where she started). This has been a total whirlwind for her, her young daughter Emmara, and her boyfriend Derrick. They're struggling and are in need of some financial help to cover all the sudden, unexpected travel costs, emergency motel stays in the new cities, and costs to help get Emmara to her dad's house out of state.

The family is trying to come together to help support them as best as we can during all this-- If you'd like to help them out with covering some of these surprise emergency costs, I know Hope and everyone in the family would be so incredibly grateful.

We'd love so much for Hope to have one less thing to worry about during this scary and stressful time so she can just focus on her recovery.

Thank you so much for reading and sharing, everyone.
