I am Vicki Hunter, I'm Grammie to Cooper Davis. I am setting up this GoFundMe to help Cooper's family in their time of need.
As many of you will remember, on June 7, 2022, Cooper was diagnosed with B-cell ALL leukemia. Our hearts were crushed. Cooper went through cancer treatments until August 11, 2024. On August 11, our family had a big BBQ with family and friends to celebrate the end of this very hard time. On August 13, he got his port removed. And then the biggest day, August 28, was when Cooper FINALLY got to ring the bell signifying that treatment was OVER!! It was such a great day!
Fast forward to only a few months post celebration.
Christmas Eve of 2024, Cooper wasn't acting like himself. He was very tired, his legs were hurting, and he had a few bruises and very worried parents. On December 29, Terra and Logan took Cooper to Randall's Children's Hospital to find out that he had influenza A. He was going to need more labs done the next day to make sure nothing else was going on. The doctor decided to wait things out for him to recover from the flu. On January 22, Cooper had a bone marrow aspiration.
On February 19, Cooper was diagnosed with MDS, Myelodysplastic Syndrome - bone marrow failure. This is something mostly someone 60+ years would get, and even then it is rare. So extremely rare for a child. Unfortunately, it is a secondary issue that can happen from chemotherapy. The only option is a bone marrow transplant.
While waiting for this transplant, Cooper goes in twice a week for platelet transfusions, along with blood transfusions as needed. His body isn't holding on to the platelets very long, so he was going through many bouts of nosebleeds, some pretty severe.
This has already been a rollercoaster of a ride for Cooper, Terra, Logan, and Riley. They live an hour from the hospital and they go twice a week. Our hearts are completely shattered with this news. It feels so much worse than when they first said the word cancer in 2022.
To add to this, MDS is a secondary cancer, so they have already begun Cooper on chemo he takes every day at home to bridge him until it's transplant time.
On March 21, Cooper had a central line put in as his veins wouldn't cooperate with getting his labs done. This is so much better for Cooper! No more pokes. He received his first round of 7 days of chemo through his line.
Once a donor has been matched for the transplant, Cooper will be moving from the care of Randall's Children's Hospital to OHSU in Portland. They will be admitted for 6 or more weeks depending on how everything goes from the transplant.
Logan has been off of work, off and on, since all of this started in December. That's bad and good. He has been able to be with Cooper and Terra during several of their hospital stays. (I think they have already had 3 hospital stays since December). But being the provider of their family is making this very challenging for their finances. I am hoping this account will help them stay on their feet.
So many people have asked what they can do for the Davis family. Helping here in any way you can will help them right now to prepare for their very long hospital stay. As of right now, it looks like it could be within this next month to get the transplant. There is a lot to do to prepare for something of this magnitude.
We all appreciate from the bottom of our hearts your love, your prayers, the help you have already shown, and anything you might be able to do here. I will keep this account updated as things are starting to progress forward.
God bless each of you!
