My 3-year-old niece, Rosalie, was recently diagnosed with a Grade 2 Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumor (DLGNT), a rare tumor affecting the lining of her brain and spine. Sadly, the tumor has caused her to lose her ability to walk, but we are hopeful that with treatment and therapy, she will regain it. She’s already had critical procedures to reduce brain pressure and is bravely starting her recovery, but the road ahead will be long, with treatments, hospital stays, and physical therapy.

Her parents, Brandon and Kate, are giving all their time and energy to care for her. They won’t be able to work for the foreseeable future, and the family is facing medical bills, travel costs, and daily expenses. We’re raising funds to help cover her treatment costs, hospital stays, travel, and support for her family so they can focus on Rosalie’s recovery.

Every donation brings hope for Rosalie and helps her continue to enjoy her childhood. My family and I are truly grateful for everyone’s support and kindness during this difficult time.
