Help Talyn Fight Lymphoma!
Donation protected
On January 25th Talyn started having gut wrenching stomach pains that would not go away. Baileigh took him to the ER and they were treating it as IBS with meds. One week later he was back in the ER and had a CT scan done where it showed something was going on within his intestines and he would need to be transferred to the children's hospital in Peoria, IL. He went into surgery on February 2nd and was in surgery for over 3 hours. When the doctor came to talk to Baileigh and Stephen they were informed they had found a cancerous mass and that a St. Jude doctor would come and talk to them. When the doctor came they were informed Talyn has a form of non-hodgkins lymphoma which is called Burkitts Lymphoma. They are doing a biopsy of the mass and he has had to have a spinal tap and bone marrow done as well to figure out the stage. He started chemo this past week and will continue for a couple of months and do more testing hoping he will be in remission. Baileigh and Stephen will have to travel back and forth, an hour and a half both ways, to make sure their little guy is okay and get him the help he needs. During this time Stephen and Baileigh cannot work. They also have a set of 1 and 1/2 year old twins which have to stay home with their Aunt and will not be with their mom and dad for days at a time. This money will go to the Baldridge family to help with medical treatment and travel expenses they are going to acquire in these coming months #fightfortalyn
