Support Jimmy's Battle Against Leukemia

Help Jimmy Fight Leukemia  

My name is Francesca Phillips, and I am the proud wife of Jimmy. We’ve been married for 12 wonderful years and never imagined that life would take such a heartbreaking turn.
On February 10th, our world changed forever. Jimmy was rushed to the emergency room after an urgent call from his medical team. He was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a rare and aggressive form of blood cancer. His subtype includes the TP53 mutation along with three additional genetic mutations, making his case particularly high-risk and complex.
Since his diagnosis, Jimmy has endured more than anyone should ever have to. He spent 65 days in the hospital, received two rounds of chemotherapy, over 32 blood transfusions, and 20 platelet transfusions. Despite all of this, our battle is far from over.
Jimmy is now preparing for another round of chemotherapy at Kaiser, which will last 3–4 weeks as we wait for a bone marrow transplant match. Once a match is found, he’ll undergo additional chemotherapy, clinical treatments, and radiation, followed by a month-long stay at City of Hope. After the transplant, I will need to be by his side 24/7 to monitor for complications or possible rejection.  
As his full-time caregiver, I’ve had to step away from work. The financial strain has been immense — between medical bills, gas for travel, and everyday expenses, we’re struggling to make ends meet.
Any donation, no matter how small, would mean the world to us. Your support will help us stay afloat during this incredibly difficult time and allow me to focus on what matters most: helping Jimmy heal.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

With love and gratitude,
Francesca Phillips
