Braelyn was diagnosed on May 30, 2020, on her 3rd birthday. She unfortunately relapsed in June of 2021 and received a bone marrow transplant in Oct 2021.
She did great after treatment the first and second time but unfortunately after her bone marrow transplant in 2021 she suffered a brain injury in December of 2021. She lost her ability to walk, talk, eat, or even sit up on her own. She is now in a wheelchair and also in kidney failure due to the treatment. She does dialysis 3 days a week in addition to 3 days a week of therapy. She will need a kidney transplant but will not be eligible until she is in remission for 2 years.
Her cancer diagnosis changed everything. We had to relocate to be closer to the hospital and she now has lifelong health complications.
Braelyn has been fighting for so long and has accomplished so much that I want to celebrate her! She has been in such a good place since getting discharged last year to even think about this but I think now is the time to celebrate the wins and be proud of where she is now!
