Jordan The Champ Recovery Fund

Donation protected
Friends & Family: As many of you already know, my (then) 6-year old son Jordan was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia "AML" on March 11th 2016. It is truly every parent's nightmare; I hope so much that we find a cure so that no one ever has to go through what we've been through. His kindergarten classmates, teachers, nurses, doctors, the Make-A-Wish foundation,The Jessica June Foundation, Team Daniella's Foundation and countless others have stood by our family's side as we held his hand and supported him through so many rounds of chemotherapy and then a bone marrow transplant ( From an unrelated Donor). And over 190+ Nights Spent at the Hospital.

Our Jojo is an extraordinary boy who, by the grace of God, is today cancer-free. We are so grateful, and we are trying our best to adjust to life post-transplant, but the diagnosis took major tolls on my family's income and financial stability.


When Jojo was diagnosed, we relocated our family (me, Jordan, and his two sisters) to be closer to the children's hospital where he received his chemotherapy. I lost my only source of income, and it has taken all of my strength to manage Jordan's post-transplant medical care. This care requires visiting a clinic up to 4x a week, sometimes for the entire day, as well as unpredictable hospital stays that have lasted as long as two weeks. In addition, I am doing everything that I can to be the mother that I know my two daughters need.

Jordan's extended family has been incredibly helpful, but they, too, have given all that they can over the past year. I am so, so grateful for any and all donations, or even "shares" of this GoFundMe. Donated funds will be used to:

(a) Provide housing: I would like to ensure that we have a place to live for the next 12 months. Because his immune system is very fragile, it is critical that Jordan have his own room wherever we go next.

(b) Transportation: taking Jordan to clinic in Miami several times a week, along with picking-up and dropping-off my girls at their schools, has drastically increased our family's gas needs. I estimate gas to be about $200/month.

(c) Groceries.

(d) Money for medical or other emergencies that require cash out-of-pocket.

Thank you so, so much for any help that you can give to our family. Anyone who knows me knows that asking for this kind of assistance is the last thing that I ever wanted to do, but I am afraid for our family's immediate future and just don't know where else to turn.

With love,
Nicole
