Hi, my name is Stella. I’m 19 years old, and I’ve been diagnosed with leukemia for the second time. I will need a second bone marrow transplant, which will include a lengthy stay in the hospital.

This journey has turned my world upside down. Between hospital stays, treatments, and daily medications, I’ve had to put my life on hold—no school, no work, and no way to support myself. My body is exhausted, and so is my family. They’ve been my rock through everything, taking time off work to get me to appointments and care for me, but it’s starting to take a toll on all of us—emotionally, physically, and financially.

We never imagined we’d have to ask for help, but we’re at a point where we can’t do this alone. Your support could help cover:

Medical expenses and prescriptions

Gas and travel costs for frequent hospital visits

Basic living costs like food and utilities while I’m unable to work

Caregiving support for my family

Mental health resources to help us all stay strong

Every donation, no matter the size, helps ease the weight of this battle. If you can't donate, sharing this campaign means the world to us too.

Thank you for standing with me, for believing in my fight, and for helping me focus on healing. I still have so much life to live, and with your help, I’ll get there.

With love and gratitude,

Stella
