Oakley James fight against Leukemia

Donation protected
My name is Brittney and with the help of my friend Melissa we are wanting to start this fundraiser for our dear friend Shayla and her family. Shayla and her husband Chris celebrated 10 years married this past year and have three amazing children : Brady (7), Oakley (3) and Rylan (2).

This week on February 21st life decided to throw them a very large curveball. Their son Oakley was diagnosed with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). This is the most common type of cancer in children that affects certain cells in the immune system. This is a curveball no one expects to be thrown their way but one we know they will overcome! Since Tuesday - Oakley has been at children’s where he has received platelet transfusions, a bone biopsy, initial chemo treatments and more. This is just the beginning.

Oakley is the most genuine and kind boy you will ever meet. He is obsessed with spider man and never misses an opportunity to throw a web. We want to help lift the financial burden off of Shayla and Chris so that they can focus on keeping life as normal as possible for their kiddos being present in every moment and finding strength to get through each day.

Prayers for Oakley!
with love,
Britt and Mel
