Kendra

Kendra

Kendra had been experiencing varying symptoms like severe headaches and hand tremors when she was taken to the doctor in January 2019. Sadly, less than two years after her twin sister fought cancer, 10-year-old Kendra was diagnosed with a brain tumor called medulloblastoma. The day after being diagnosed, Kendra underwent an eight-hour brain surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible. Unfortunately, she developed a surgery side effect known as Posterior Fossa Syndrome, so she had to...

Matthew

Matthew

Matthew is a joyous and wild, friendly little boy who loves meeting new people and giggling with everyone he sees. I always say the best way to sum up the early years of our journey is that he didn’t eat cake on his first birthday. He wasn’t walking yet by his second birthday.

They said it was likely the type of tumor that wouldn’t grow so we didn’t hesitate to move when Daddy got a teaching job across the country...

One weekend, Jaci came down with a headache that was much worse than the others—she began vomiting, having stomach pain and having double vision. “We took Jaci to her first ER visit ever on a Saturday,” shared her parents, “where we ended up being told that she was fine and to follow up with her primary physician that Monday. Wanting to believe this was true, our...
