Support Kelly Snyder's Fight Against AML

Help my sister Kelly Snyder fight Acute Myeloid Leukemia and support her family. #teamkelly

Hello everyone,

I am reaching out to you with a heavy heart to ask for your support for my sister, who is bravely fighting Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Kelly is a loving mother of three wonderful children and wife to Darren for 20 years. Kelly’s battle with this aggressive cancer has brought immense challenges to her and her family.

Kelly has encountered significant setbacks during her treatment. She has experienced difficulties recovering after each chemotherapy session, including severe infections, which have resulted in 13 hospitalizations over the last few months. Despite her efforts to continue working, she has been unable to do so consistently due to the severe side effects and all the time she has been in the hospital. They have struggled to find matched platelets and blood for her and her body is building up antibodies from all the transfusions. I encourage everyone to consider making a blood donation due to the critically low supply.

Just before Kelly was diagnosed with leukemia, her family had experienced numerous medical emergencies. Her oldest child underwent major back surgery and while recovering also had an emergency appendectomy. Then shortly after, Kelly and Darren’s youngest child also had an emergency appendectomy. While helping her family recover, Kelly was diagnosed and started her fight against leukemia. The emotional and financial strain on her family has been overwhelming. Kelly’s husband Darren has been doing all he can to support their children and support Kelly in the hospital.

The medical bills from 13 hospitalizations and all the treatments needed to fight AML are causing a strain on Kelly’s family. Despite her strength and resilience and our help, the stress this is causing on Kelly, and her family is tremendous. Your generous contributions will go towards covering her medical expenses, treatments, and providing relief for her family's daily needs. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in their lives.

How You Can Help:

1. Donate: Any amount you can contribute will be appreciated and will go directly to supporting my sister Kelly and her family.

2. Share: Please share this campaign with your friends, family, and social networks to help us reach as many people as possible.

3. Pray: Your thoughts and prayers are also a source of strength and comfort for my sister and her family during this challenging time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, generosity, and support. Together, we can help Kelly focus on her recovery and provide her family with the stability they need during this difficult period.

With gratitude, Jody Pertzborn
