Cheyenne was diagnosed with an epidermoid tumor. She had the first craniotomy surgery a little over a year ago. She faced many complications after that surgery. It was the worst. Barely a year later, the tumor grew back. After the nightmare they went through locally, they had to find somewhere better. Columbia in NYC is ranked among the best neuro hospitals in the country. They performed a more aggressive craniotomy surgery that lasted nearly 10 hours. After this surgery, they took a culture of her cyst. They found that there was a bacteria growing in it. She's on a 4-6 week antibiotic treatment to kill that. It's been one thing after another since her initial diagnosis. She still can't walk. Her speech is very slurred and lethargic. She just started acute therapy today to learn to walk and to improve her speech.

Her parents Harry and Dawn have not left her side since the start and are currently staying in NYC to be with her. As we all know things can get expensive staying so far away from home, between travel, hotels, food and medical bills. As of right now there's no telling how much longer they will be there and how much longer Cheyenne will need care. This family has a huge heart and has done countless benefits and softball tournaments to help raise money for many of our local families in need. Please let's help give them some support to relieve some of their worries and financial stress while being there for Cheyenne until they can bring her home.
