Laikyn is an energetic, kind-hearted, and deeply loved 8-year-old girl whose life changed overnight. What began as a normal doctor’s visit turned into a heartbreaking diagnosis — leukemia. Within just a few days, her parents went from school drop-offs and bedtime routines to emergency hospital stays and conversations no family should ever have to face.
Laikyn’s parents were told on a Thursday night that their daughter has cancer. Since then, they’ve been navigating an overwhelming schedule of tests, treatments, and waiting for answers — all while trying to stay strong for Laikyn and her siblings.
As they begin this long journey through treatment and healing, they are also facing immense financial challenges. Between time off work, hospital stays, travel expenses, and the cost of ongoing care, the burden is heavy.
This GoFundMe has been created by those who care deeply about this family, to lift some of the financial weight off their shoulders so they can focus on what matters most: helping Laikyn heal.
All donations will go directly to the family to help with:
• Medical bills and treatment costs
• Travel and lodging expenses for hospital stays
• Time away from work to be at Laikyn’s side
• Everyday needs during this difficult time
Please give if you can. Every prayer, every share, and every dollar brings hope and strength to a family fighting one of the hardest battles life can bring.
Let’s come together for Laikyn.
