A Little Angel named Kaylea, Kristi - the Story Siren's little cousin

This adorable little angel is named Kaylea. She is Kristi's (the Story Siren) little six year old cousin, who just so happens to love reading. 

On the 27th of this month, her family found out she had leukemia. She was sent to Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis and the next day found out that she has acute lymphocyte leukemia. Today she had surgery and a spinal tap. The plan is to start her on chemo later today. 

Kristi has asked for the blogging community and anyone else who reads this to please try and help out a bit in sending some cards and/or books to a P.O box (Which you can find the address in this post!) they have set up. You can also help by sending in donations to her family, or by clicking on the donation button on Kristi's page on her sidebar. But something that would help most of all, and everyone can do, is to just please keep sweet Kaylea and her family in your prayers and to spread the word. 

You can read more about it at this post on Kristi's page. 

Get better soon Kaylea! You are in everyone's prayers.

  2. You are very welcome. :) It breaks my heart seeing such an adorable and young girl with cancer. I'm not a mother yet, but I will be in less than two months to a little boy and I can't imagine what I would do if I ever found out he had some sort of serious illness.

    I'll keep her in my prayers and spread the word. Hope she gets better soon!
