Help support Waylon's battle against SCID!
Donation protected
Hello, this is Waylon! He is my beautiful 3 month old boy who is so strong and amazing! He was born with SCID, which stands for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. It's a rare, life-threatening genetic disorder that severely affects the immune system. He was born without properly functioning T cells and B cells, which are critical for fighting infections. Because of this, even common infections can be extremely dangerous. We came to the hospital on 05/23/25 for a diaper rash that got severely out of control super fast due to this disease, and we were admitted that night and have not left since. The only way to cure his disease is through a bone marrow transplant. In the 5 weeks we have been here, he has had countless blood draws, tons of antibiotics, ultrasounds, xrays, ekg's, a pic-line, 2 central lines, chemo, a catheter, and so much more. His transplant is scheduled for July 2nd and we will have to be admitted for at least 30 to 45 days for monitoring, and then we have to live locally in the area for an additional 60 to 90 days after. The process for the bone marrow transplant is a week of different chemotherapies to wipe out any little cells he may have left for a clean slate for the new stem cells from the transplant to take place. It's a long, expensive, and stressful journey. Any donation will be extremely helpful as we will have medical bills, local housing bills, weekly laundromat expenses, and even our normal bills as we are away from home and it's hard to work. Thank you!!
