Support Shawn's Urgent Stem Cell Transplant

Hi, my name is Gina Jolley. I’m a proud mother of five beautiful children, and today, I’m reaching out on behalf of my 22-year-old son, Shawn, who is bravely battling a rare and aggressive form of cancer: Mast Cell Leukemia.

Just a few months ago, Shawn was diagnosed with Systemic Mastocytosis, a rare blood disorder. After spending six long weeks in the hospital and undergoing chemotherapy, we received the devastating news that it had progressed into Mast Cell Leukemia—an extremely rare and aggressive cancer.

Shawn now urgently needs a stem cell transplant, his only hope for a potential cure. Unfortunately, Mast Cell Leukemia is resistant to standard chemotherapy, and this transplant comes with a long, painful recovery journey—along with an overwhelming financial burden.

Even with insurance, the out-of-pocket costs are staggering. We’re facing:

    •    Ongoing hospital bills and life-saving medications

    •    Post-transplant isolation in a sterile, controlled environment

    •    Specialized nutrition, clean living supplies, and holistic care

    •    Lost income and 24/7 care needs during his recovery

This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write—and asking for help doesn’t come easy. But if you’re able to donate, share, or simply offer words of support, it would mean the world to our family. Every gesture helps us focus on what matters most: helping Shawn heal and giving him a fighting chance.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here, for caring, and for walking this road with us.

With gratitude,

Gina Jolley & Family
