Beckham was diagnosed with ALL on December 29th, 2020. He had fever and leg pain leading up to his diagnosis. They said it was probably covid and to quarantine. We did and after 2 weeks his appetite decreased. The fevers were gone but we just knew something wasn’t right. He woke up early morning of the 29th with severe abdominal pain and the fever came back so we took him to ER where they diagnosed him with cancer.
He has had 10 different chemos, 11 lumbar punctures, 2 surgeries, 4 bone marrow biopsies. He has also spent 68 days/nights in the hospital since diagnosis and has multiple appointments weekly. He is entering the maintenance phase.
We are limited on going out and doing family fun activities. My daughter is now having to see a psychiatrist, this has caused lots of anxiety having our family split up due to hospitalizations. Mom has dropped her income significantly.
Beckham is the most amazing brave little boy you will ever meet. He is so happy despite everything and has a heart of gold.
