👨🏼‍🏫 Here's the Allie Update from Friday April 5th

Our girl had a crazy day. Fever came on and hit the mark where they have to take her in. They thought she might be admitted, but thank God, they checked her out and she was allowed to go home! AND her count was back up to 650!!!! Not high enough for treatment tomorrow, so they will check her again on Monday and if ANC is high enough, she will have treatment on Tuesday. Please continue to pray for her count and strength. And pray she is totally healed from this disease. Thank you so much.

That smile just melts my heart.

Allie Update 3/13 -- Look at that snazzy walker!

Allie went to school today and did good, but was a bit tired. They got her walker all set up and ready. This will help with her legs a lot. Please pray for her numbers to be good Thursday for treatment Friday. Pray for strength, protection and healing. Thank you all so much

The Allie Update -- 2/24/24

👨🏼‍🏫 IT'S SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH, 2024...

Allie had her treatment today, and she was a little scared she told me, but I told her that was ok! She did good! She also got her braces yesterday, for her to wear when she’s sitting or laying down. They have also decided they want her to wear leg braces when she’s walking, for stability and comfort. She should get those in a week or so. The family was given a wheelchair to use at school, so she can save her leg strength for recess 😃

Trevor is also going to look into a walker, which would be much easier for her to use.

She’s always got a smile, doesn’t she?! Please keep praying for protection from illness. Pray that this treatment doesn’t cause her any issues and for complete healing.

All of you who pray are such a blessing, you have no clue! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

2/15 Allie’s a cutie patootie!

The Allie update:

Yesterday our girl started PT for her legs. She had a pretty good day today! I forgot to post her Valentines photo so you get two tonight!

Please pray her legs get stronger and that the pain goes away. Pray for her to tolerate the treatment and for total healing.

Thank you all so much

A letter from Allie's aunt Jennifer

Our sweet girl Allie has been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), a battle that no child or family should go through. As we rally around Allie and her family during this challenging time, we're reaching out to our loved ones for support.

Leukemia has taken its toll on Allie and their family. She has had about a dozen blood transfusions and two anaphylactic reactions to the chemotherapy treatment which is vital to her successful recovery. She is in and out of the hospital fighting for her life. This has taken an emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial toll on this sweet family. Victoria and Trevor have been balancing working full-time, caring for their boys (who both have Autism Spectrum Disorder), and learning a whole new life that they were thrown into. Victoria and Trevor are spending the night with Allie at the hospital, going to work, caring for their boys, and then coming back to the hospital so Allie is never alone. However, this has taken a huge toll. But with your generosity, we aim to provide her with the strength, hope, and resources needed to overcome this relentless disease. The emotional and financial burden on Allie's family is immense, and we want to ensure they can focus on the fight against leukemia without the added worry of mounting medical bills and expenses.

Your donation will make a world of difference in Allie's journey toward recovery. Here's how your support can help:

Medical Expenses: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment is an expensive and ongoing process. The average recovery time is about two years. And it may be longer due to Allie's life-threatening allergic reaction to the chemo. Your contributions will assist in covering medical bills, hospital stays, medications, and other necessary treatments.

Emotional Support: Fighting leukemia is not only a physical battle but an emotional one as well. Your donations will help Allie and her family access counseling and support services to navigate the emotional challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis. This includes counseling and support for Allie's brothers, who both are on the spectrum. This is critical for them to adjust to this new life, not being able to play with Allie, and the adjustments to having Victoria and Trevor go back and forth between the hospital and their home.

Quality of Life: Beyond medical needs, your generosity will contribute to enhancing Allie's overall quality of life. This includes nutritional support, alternative therapies, and other necessary treatments that can make a significant impact on her well-being.

No donation is too small, and every bit brings us one step closer to giving Allie the chance she deserves for a healthy and joyful future and leaving this cancer in the past. We believe in the power of community, love, prayers, and compassion to make a difference in Allie's life.

Please join us in this fight by donating and sharing this campaign. Let's surround Allie with the love and support she needs to triumph over leukemia. And PLEASE share this on your social media, in your workplaces, and among your own community.

Thank you for being a beacon of hope in Allie's journey to recovery.

With gratitude and love,

The Woods-Whatton Family
