Shaden

acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

Shaden is fighting against leukemia. He is three years old and was a healthy boy before his diagnosis. Then, out of nowhere, he would get a lot of body aches that were very unusual.

Sometimes Shaden didn’t feel like being the happy, energetic kid he always was. He wouldn’t walk, sleep or eat. We decided to take Shaden to the children’s hospital and they did some testing. They soon told us that he might have leukemia. They did more testing, and Shaden was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Shaden loves dinosaurs and cars. He loves to run and jump. He loves "acting like a T- Rex". He has a bird pet and fish fishes that he adores. I am his mother, a 23-year-old single mom and I’ve been raising Shaden on my own with the help of my family.

I’m currently not going to work to stay with Shaden and since we have to be in the hospital for seven months it's super hard to juggle both. Shaden and I will be so grateful for your donations and if you can’t all we ask is to pray for us.

Thank you so much for taking the time to donate and praying for us!
