I am setting up this GoFundMe to support the Blezard family as they walk through an incredibly challenging time with their sweet daughter, Ellie.

Ellie is a bright, strong, and loving little girl who is autistic, bringing a special kind of joy and light to everyone around her. Recently, after a series of medical concerns and testing, Ellie was diagnosed with cancer following the discovery of a fast-growing mass. While this news has been incredibly difficult, Ellie continues to show so much strength and resilience every single day.

Her family is staying close by her side at the hospital, focusing all their love and energy on her care and comfort. At the same time, they are caring for Ellie’s three-month-old baby sister, doing everything they can to support both of their girls during this emotional time.

With extended hospital stays come many unexpected expenses—parking, meals, and accommodations—that can quickly become overwhelming. This fundraiser is meant to help ease that burden so the family can focus on what matters most: being together and supporting Ellie through her treatment and recovery.

Any funds not used during their hospital stay will be donated to Ronald McDonald House Charities, an organization that supports families facing similar journeys.

If you are able to give, no matter how big or small, it would mean so much. Your support—whether through a donation, a share, or simply keeping Ellie and her family in your thoughts—helps surround them with strength, love, and hope.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support during this time.
