My Story

Thank you for supporting me and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. By sharing the gifts of your time, talent and money with the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure. Avery is 3 and she is sooo playful and happy despite feeling tired and sick; she keeps going. Avery loves to be with her 3 brothers and is always near one of them. Her favorite is Matthew, who is 1. They have been together everyday including hospital stays the last 6 months. Avery is the most caring sibling. She takes care of everyone. Due to COVID-19, Avery is very sad now when she has to be admitted and separated from her siblings and Mama.
