Support Kaitlyn Filkins' Fight Against Aplastic Anemia

This past spring, Kaitlyn was catching in a softball game and took a wild pitch to the arm, which caused a bruise. Bruising isn't uncommon for catchers, but this bruise didn't want to go away. This bruise turned out to be somewhat of a blessing in that it allowed doctors to catch on that Kaitlyn had Aplastic Anemia—an extremely rare blood disorder which required Kaitlyn to undergo a bone marrow transplant. Kaitlyn has a long road ahead, which will require her to be hospitalized for quite some time, and then once released, she will need to remain in isolation for months.

As you could imagine, this is a road that no one wants to travel with their child, but Keith, Joanna, and Joey are doing everything they can to keep Kaitlyn safe.
