The story of Amaya and Ariana
Amaya is the four-year-old big sister to Ariana. In May, little Ariana was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). She is two years old. Ariana started an intense chemotherapy full of drug cocktails and side effects. Mom, Kelsey, is juggling raising these two beautiful girls while studying nursing full time. Helping mom is her own mother. Because Kelsey registered Ariana with Connor's Heroes, Mom, Grandma and the girls are receiving support from us. Last week, Erin gave mom a $50 gift card for Kroger. Mom and the girls joined us for a night at The Diamond to meet Nutzy and watch a baseball game. Ariana started her long journey with childhood cancer, but thanks to you, Ariana and Amaya are not alone.
Connor's Heroes is rallying with the world during September's Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. We'll share stories, encouragement, and updates on what we've accomplished thanks to you! You allow us to fulfill our mission:
To build a community of heroes who provide hope, guidance, and support to children with cancer and their families.
