Buckley Family
John Buckley was diagnosed with Acute
lymphocytic leukemia on 09/17/17, just 2
weeks into first grade. It was a long 2 years of chemo, bone marrow biopsies, hospitalizations, and much more than any 7 year old should endure.
Then came good news and he celebrated
his last chemo treatment in October 27, 2019. He celebrated with his family and
friends in their new home.
His family just received the terrible news
that he has had a relapse of his ALL and he will be admitted to children's tomorrow for a bone marrow biopsy, lumbar puncture,
PICC placement and begin chemo. He will
be in the hospital at least 30 days. The goal is to get him to criteria for stem cell
transplant, which is the ultimate plan. He
most likely won't return to school this year and will be in the hospital for the majority
of the next few months.
The Buckley family has 4 other children to care for as well and will be struggling
financially with mortgage payments and
medical treatments. Any donation will be
greatly appreciated.
