Kylie's Journey Dinner Fundraiser

Kylie was born to Heather and Daryl on September 29th, 2005 She has three siblings at home. Kylie’s Journey began in February 2011 when she started to present flu like symptoms. Mom and Dad noticed their daughter was increasingly more lethargic and that her color was awful. They took a trip to Hasbro Children’s Hospital to find out what no parent ever wants to hear. Their once vibrant and energetic child had Leukemia. The cancer that Kylie has requires over two years of treatment and regular spinal taps. The treatment and tests leave this little warrior exhausted and fragile. A few weeks ago little Kylie broke her toe due to her weak bones. Currently she is unable to walk on her own due to muscle loss This disease wont stop Kylie from being a loving and adoring daughter and sister. Look for "Kylie's journey" community page on facebook.
