Help Niko Battle Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis

Donation protected
On August 4, 2025, my 2-year-old son, Niko, was diagnosed with a rare disease called Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH). After months of doctor visits and multiple emergency room trips, we finally learned the cause of his severe hip pain and limp. Following a two-week stay at Loma Linda Children’s Hospital, we received answers we never expected.
Niko is such a brave little boy. He has three lesions, one on his hip bone and two in his head (one on the top of his skull and one behind his eyes). He has now started his journey with chemotherapy, which will continue for a year in hopes that the lesions will shrink.
Because of his treatment and medical needs, I am unable to work as I am his full-time caregiver. This has placed a heavy financial burden on our family. We’ve set up this GoFundMe to offer support during this difficult time, allowing our family to focus on what truly matters: healing Niko.
Any contribution, no matter the size, will go directly toward his medical care and our living expenses as I care for him. We are deeply grateful for your prayers, love, and generosity as we walk through this journey with faith and hope.
