Miracles for Madi vs Neuroblastoma
Donation protected
Without a moment's notice, our world was flipped upside down.
Madilynn Jo, our sassy 2-year old princess, was diagnosed with neuroblastoma on 1/25/2022 after a CT scan showed a mass near her spine. Madi had a visit with her pediatrician after crying all weekend that her belly hurt and showing signs of a stomach bug. It was suggested that she have a scan just to check things out. After the scan was read by several doctors, Danielle and Todd were told to pack a bag and get Madi to the hospital as quickly as possible; they were waiting on her. That is a phone call no parent ever wants to receive.
Madi is currently being treated by a world class team at John Hopkins Pediatric Oncology. They are in the early stages of bloodwork, testing, scans, biopsies, and defining a treatment plan. At this time, it is suspected to be high risk neuroblastoma that has metastasized in multiple places.
Madi is a Pasadena, MD resident that lives with her parents, Todd Nelson, Defensive Coordinator for the Stevenson University football team & Realtor with Douglas Realty, and Danielle Nelson, Practice Manager at Anne Arundel Dermatology, and her two older brothers, Connor (10) and Jordan (5).
Help us rally around the Nelson family as they face some of the scariest and most uncertain days, weeks, and months ahead. By taking some of the financial burden off of Todd and Danielle, we will allow them to focus on Madi, Connor and Jordan.
Thank you in advance from the whole family, for your support and love through all of this! You can follow Madi's journey on the Facebook group Miracles for Madi
