On May 13, 2020, my beautiful and strong niece Kynlee was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in the right knee. She was 13 years old. And for the last 3 years, she's battled cancer with a smile on her face and love in her heart. She's gone through several rounds of chemotherapy, multiple surgeries, and even rang the cancer-free bell once.
But this past September, the cancer returned and the scans show it metastasized into Kynlee's lungs. To fight this, Kynlee's doctors have to remove her right leg (just above the knee) and are starting her on a new type of chemo.
Now, at 16 years old, Kynlee needs help covering the cost of a prosthetic and continued medical needs, so she can focus on beating this aggressive osteosarcoma.
Kynlee is strong, stoic, and wise beyond her years. These donations will help her live as normally as possible during this very difficult time.
How the Money Will Be Used:
- Buying a good quality prosthetic
- Covering medical expenses
