Strength in Smiles for Ashlynn

Hey Everybody,

This is my friend Ashlynn. She is 4 years old and has an amazing, heartwarming smile. Last week she went to the doctor because her back was hurting and was in screaming pain. She was sent home with a prognosis of growing pains and advised to take ibuprofen, but still the pain continued. A second opinion at urgent care led to immediate admission to Doernbecher's Childrens Hospital where doctors found several tumors around her kidneys and spine. She has been diagnosed with Pre-B Lymphoblastic Lymphoma and will require several years of chemo and radiation

Ashlynn is the sencond youngest of 6 children and daughter to a wonderful set of parnets Trisha and Shawn Widney. Obviously the sudden discovery of their daughters cancer has had a very large emotional and financial impact and her family and loved ones. I am asking for those who can help, to open your hearts and help this family through this difficult time.
