Asia's trip to Walt Disney World
Donation protected
Asia Mangham is a 13 year old little girl with Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS).
Childhood RMS is a soft tissue sarcoma, a disease in which malignant cancer cells form in soft tissues of the body. In June 2014 Asia was diagnosed with stage 4 RMS. It started with a small growth on her hand. When she went to have the tumor removed, the doctor determined it was too late. The cancer had spread to her spine, lungs, heart, and bone marrow. Asia makes weekly trips to Children’s Hospital in Little Rock for radiation and Chemotherapy treatments; however, these treatments have proven unsuccessful. The cancer continues to spread and the doctors have informed the family there is little more they can do.
Asia today
Asia lives in Rogers with her mother, father, and two younger siblings. The Mangham family would like to take Asia to Disney World for Spring Break. Although Asia has been granted a Make-A-Wish (to meet the cast of Supernatural) the trip is not scheduled until April 2015 (the earliest the cast can meet with her) and it is not certain what condition her health will be at that time. With this in mind, the Mangham's are eager to spend time together in the happiest place on Earth. The weekly trips to Little Rock Children's Hospital and the frequent hospitalizations have been very trying on the entire family. They are in desperate need of a vacation and precious time together. Please help make this dream a possibility.
