My name is April. My daughter has just been diagnosed with lymphoma. She is a sweet, lively, 11 year old little girl, with nothing but positive things to say. She starts her chemo 11/13/23. About 6 months ago, we found a lump on her head. We took her for imaging, and the doctors said it was just a cyst. In just a few weeks, the lump started growing at a rapid rate. Trippled in size in just 3 weeks. We had a set appointment at children's hospital for removal. We took her to multiple doctors in-between her removal appointment, and was told nothing can be done and wait for her surgery. By the time we got to surgery, it has became infected and she was immediately admitted to the hospital. We spend a couple days in the hospital while they removed it and sent the biopsy. When the biopsy results came back, we were told it was actually a tumor and she has lymphoma or possibly leukemia. Over the last few weeks, we have been driving back and fourth to her doctor, 2 hours away, for PET scan, CT scan, bone marrow biopsy, spinal tap, countless bloodwork and she received a port implant in her chest. After all the testing results came back, we were told she has B cell lymphoma and is at stage 2. She will be admitted to the hospital on 11/13/23 for a week, and will begin chemo. She will have weekly visits to the hospital for her treatment. She can't go back to school and that hurts her. She loves school and was on the kindness crew. She also played clarinet for the school band. During summer, she would bring her guitar and sing for people at the wood park. She is an amazing girl. She has an older sister in middle school. My husband has missed days off work, but will continue his job. I need to stay home with Natalie. We are strugging with just his income. We will use the funds for traveling back and fourth to the hospital and for our rent/utilities. Please keep Natalie in your prayers. She is a strong little girl with a big heart. Thank you, and thanks for your help.
