Jonathan started his bone marrow transplant in a room filled with his favorite superheroes, thanks to the creativity of our long-time volunteer, Jillian. We received word that Jonathan would begin a stem cell transplant right at the holidays. The day after Christmas, Jillian braved the post-holiday crowds and went to the store. She bought colorful decorations, comfy room decor, toys and games. She had only 24 hours to get the room ready for his admission. She worked at a superhero speed and finished in time. What a wonderful surprise for Jonathan and his family. We are thinking of Jonathan as he goes through his transplant to treat Neuroblastoma. And of course, we thank Jillian for making Jonathan and his family feel special.
