About a month ago, our family received news that changed everything. My 1 year old niece, Isabella, was diagnosed with cancer.

In just a few weeks, her world went from playful moments and baby giggles to hospital rooms, bloodwork, and now chemotherapy, which she started just today. It’s heartbreaking to watch someone so small go through something so big, yet somehow, Isabella continues to smile. She is full of light and strength, even in the middle of all this.

My sister, her mother, has had to stop working to care for Isabella full-time. She’s also raising her 7yo son and trying to hold everything together while facing the emotional and financial weight of this diagnosis. The costs are quickly adding up, from hospital visits and medications to travel, groceries, and everyday needs. It's simply more than one family can carry alone.

We’re sharing Isabella’s story here as a way to keep friends, family, and anyone who wants to follow her journey updated. If you feel moved to offer support, in any form, we’re truly grateful but most of all, we just appreciate you being here and thinking of her.

Any form of support is appreciated more than we can say. Whether it’s a donation, a kind message, a prayer, or just sharing this page, it makes a real difference.

Of course, if GoFundMe is more convenient, feel free to donate here. Every dollar will go directly toward supporting Isabella’s treatment and helping my sister provide for her children during this incredibly difficult time.

Through all of this, we are holding on to faith. We believe in God’s plan, and we are praying every day for Isabella’s healing. We know we’re not alone, and we are so grateful for the kindness, prayers, and generosity of those around us.

Thank you for standing with our family and for showing love to Isabella.
