Kendall's Cancer Battle
Donation protected
This GoFundMe was started to help the Tolley Family. Donated funds will be used to offset the cost of Kendall's care as his illness runs its course. This includes medical expenses, travel, lodging and final expenses for Kendall and his family.
My nephew Kendall Tolley (9) was diagnosed with an aggressive Glioma or brain tumor. He was diagnosed and started treatments in Boise, Idaho at St. Luke's Children's Hospital. However, his doctors decided that the best treatment options for his type of cancer was proton radiation therapy and transferred him to Primary Children's hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah Christmas weekend. Once there, he underwent intensive physical therapy and additional brain surgeries. While being treated he also started radiation treatments daily at the Huntsman Cancer Institute requiring him to be sedated. He has been in an ICU or special brain trauma unit for almost three months and has had multiple brain surgeries. His doctors and parents have decided to take Kendall home as further treatment will no longer be effective. Their focus at this time is preserving his quality of life and the precious time they have together as a family.
The Tolley Family would like to express their appreciation for the kindness of many who have reached out during this difficult time. Thank you for your thoughtful and sincere efforts to help.
Thank you,
