Support Braiden Perrington's Fight Against Leukemia

Hi, I’m Lexis Perrington, sister of Braiden Perrington. My 20-year-old brother was having some medical issues that we were trying to get figured out, all while he was off at his freshman year of college at BSU. Braiden came home for Thanksgiving break and wasn’t feeling like himself. He had a doctor's appointment, and the doctor suspected he was having unknown seizures and put in a referral for him to see a neurologist.

While waiting for that referral, his symptoms began to worsen within just the few days he was home: bloody noses, vomiting, very fatigued, and often confused.

On November 30th, he was brought into the ER and had blood work done where his WBC was off the charts and his hemoglobin at a 6. In the ER, they also did additional scans and found a 15cm mass in his chest. Grand Itasca decided to send him to Duluth via ambulance for further testing and a diagnosis of (Leukemia).

As we are hopeful for the best outcome, Braiden will also have to make the hard decision of leaving BSU only a quarter of the way into his first year of college. As you can imagine, large medical bills are anticipated from the time in the hospital, tests, and chemotherapy. Braiden also has an outstanding tuition bill to pay as well and will be out of work during this time.

All raised funds will go to Braiden to pay medical bills, tuition, hotels for my parents to be with him, and any other outstanding bills that this hard journey takes him. We are grateful for any support, big or small, that can help alleviate the financial burden and allow Braiden to focus on his recovery. Your generosity will bring hope and comfort to our family during this challenging time.

Please consider sharing this campaign with your friends and family to help spread the word. Your thoughts, prayers, and consideration are deeply appreciated.
