Help support Chayse fight Leukemia

Firstly thank you for taking the time to read Chayse’s story.
As most of you know, Chayse was diagnosed with A.L.L (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia) on Monday 11th February. Graycen and Daniel’s world was completely turned upside down. Sunday the 10th February the Gannon family was enjoying a gorgeous weekend away with friends. On Sunday morning Chayse woke up with swollen ankles and huge bruises all up his legs. Without hesitation Grayce and Daniel took Chayse straight up to the Emergency department at our local regional hospital (Bega South East Regional Hospital), after many of blood tests the pediatrician called for Chayse to be taken to Royal Childrens Hospital in Sydney immediately as his test results were extremely bad. Chayse was taken to the airport in an ambulance and flown off in the air ambulance.
On Monday morning Chayse was taken into his first surgery where the doctors performed a lumbar puncture on his spine and a bone marrow biopsy.
By mid afternoon the preliminarily tests came back with the horrific news that our little two year old Chayse had A.L.L. It was then that they were advised that Chayse would need to remain in Sydney (along side his family) for at least the next four months for aggressive chemotherapy.
This morning (Wednesday 13th February) Chayse went in for another surgery. He has had a port access inserted in his chest for chemotherapy treatment.
Graycen, Daniel and Chayse recently welcomed Cohen into the world. He is now just 6 months old which puts added stress on the family as they try to work out how they are possibly going to cope with the coming months. Cohen is unable to stay with Graycen at the hospital and he will remain in Bega with the care of his Dad, Daniel.
Sydney is approximately 5.5hrs away and as you can imagine the back and forth trips will start to add up, ongoing medication and not to mention the additional bills that are now coming in fast. In addition to this, once Chayse is released from hospital he will need to attend the Childrens hospital every week for a few days at a time for further chemotherapy. Unfortunately it doesn’t end here, Chayse will continue to take his chemotherapy medication at home.
Graycen and Daniel wont know how aggressive the Leukiema is for another 3- 4 weeks, and by then it could be a lot worse or as it is now.
Please join me in supporting Chayse’s fight against Leukemia and help the Gannon family in this difficult time. No Donation is too little, even $5 will make a difference.
