<div>Berkley is a joyful, spirited 3-year-old who loves dance, playing at the ballpark with her siblings, and lighting up every room with her contagious smile. But in an instant, her life was turned upside down.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What began as a lingering fever quickly spiraled into a medical crisis. After weeks of uncertainty, testing, and multiple hospital transfers, Berkley was diagnosed with HLH (Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis) — a rare and life-threatening immune disorder that causes the body to attack itself.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She was admitted to the hospital on Memorial Day and spent 50 long days inpatient at St. Jude. After enduring countless procedures, sedation, central lines, blood transfusions, and even bowel surgery, Berkley began making miraculous progress. She was learning to walk again, smiling, interacting, and slowly returning to herself. Her family was just two days away from being discharged to St. Jude’s outpatient apartments, where they would finally be reunited as a family of five.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>But just days before discharge, everything changed again.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Berkley’s HLH suddenly flared, and the progress they had fought so hard for began to unravel. She is now intubated, sedated, and fighting for her life once again.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>St. Jude researchers are collaborating with specialists across the United States, urgently working to determine what’s causing her HLH to resurface.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>They believe in miracles because of our God, Berkley’s strength, in answered prayers, and in the love that surrounds her.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for being part of her story. 

</div>
