Www.thekccf.org/SaveDaniz(Link in bio) Please donate, share and tag people. Thank you! In early 2022, we introduced you to Daniz. She was 7 then, and she and her mother had traveled from their home in Azerbaijan to Turkiye with the support of our foundation, Koenig Childhood Cancer Foundation, seeking an evaluation and treatment plan for her cancer diagnosis. Unable to receive the necessary care in Turkiye, it became clear that Daniz’s best hope for conquering cancer was at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. It also became clear that the expenses associated with this treatment and the required relocation to New York City were simply insurmountable for this single mother. We shared Daniz’s story with this incredible network of KCCF supporters, and donations came in from around the world. In the end, Daniz was able to see through her cancer treatment at MSKCC, and her mother was able to focus on her daughter’s recovery without the suffocating weight of financial debt. Daniz fought, her scans became cancer free, and she got back to the business of being a kid. The generosity of the KCCF community made it possible. Now, we have received the devastating news that Daniz’s cancer is back. Her battle has begun again in full force. Hospitalization, hair loss, surgeries—everything she thought she’d left behind her is once again her reality. The new tumor has been removed from her brain, and the aggressive treatments continue. Daniz and her devastated mother need our support. Please pray for them and give what you are able. They have made it through this battle once before; your help will provide them with the hope they need to do it again. Please, donate and share this post so we can reach our campaign goal. www.thekccf.org/SaveDaniz (link in bio!)#kccf #elanalailakoenig #childhoodcancer #cancersupport #cancercommunity #cancersurvivor #cancerfree #cancerfighter #awareness #attackingcancer #giveback #makeadifference #philanthropy #peopletv #peoplemagazine #donate #cancer #pediatriccancer #pediatriccancerfoundation #pediatriccancerawareness #childhoodcancerawareness #helpcancerpatients #raisefunds

Recently, we received a devastating message from a

Recently, we received a devastating message from a mother desperately seeking help for her son Teyyub, who was diagnosed with cancer just a few days prior. Her message read:“Hello Elana’s mom,I am Teyyub Guliyev’s mom, Ayshen.I am writing to you in regards to my son’s treatment.My 6-year-old son Meraj just got treated for Type B Diffusion Lymphoma; now my 2-year-old son Teyyub is also suffering from the same cancer. Can you imagine [having] two kids diagnosed with cancer?Up until today, we did not get any [financial] support; we treated our first son at Hacettepe Hospital with our [own funds]. We don’t have any support for our second child to get treated from today on.His doctor warned us that if our child doesn’t get treated as soon as possible, his sickness can worsen.Because my first child got treated on time, his body responded to treatment fast, thank GOD.As a mother, I am begging you, please help us financially for the treatment of our second child, Teyyub. May GOD protect everyone that is involved in helping in this matter.Helpless mom of two heroes,Ayshe”No parent should have to face the nightmare of their child being diagnosed with cancer. It is unfathomable to have cancer come for another of your children. KCCF immediately responded to Ayshen’s appeal for help by paying the initial hospital bill, allowing Teyyub to begin his treatment. This family’s resources were drained by the treatment expenses for Meraj; now his little brother is facing the same cancer attack—but with no funds, fighting back with treatment may not be possible. This struggling family, brave cancer fighter, and other fighters need our help.Please, donate today to help kids like Teyyub and Meraj. www.thekccf.org/donate#kccf #elanalailakoenig #childhoodcancer #cancersupport #cancercommunity #cancersurvivor #cancerfree #cancerfighter #awareness #attackingcancer #giveback #makeadifference #philanthropy #peopletv #peoplemagazine #donate #cancer #pediatriccancer #pediatriccancerfoundation #pediatriccancerawareness #childhoodcancerawareness #helpcancerpatients #raisefunds

Meet hero Brianna! Brianna’s mom calls Brianna

Meet hero Brianna! Brianna’s mom calls Brianna “her miracle baby.” After many unsuccessful pregnancies, Brianna came along almost four years ago—her mother’s first child. Funny and thoughtful, adventurous and mischievous, Brianna brings light and joy wherever she goes. Just before her third birthday, Brianna was diagnosed with neuroblastoma. In the nine months since, she and her mother have been navigating their new world of hospitals and cancer treatments together, and they’ve been making an effort to find and surround themselves with a community of others who have weathered the pediatric cancer world too. The KCCF team met this little family at an event and have since been by their side when they’re in New York City for Brianna’s treatments and surgeries, helping them financially and emotionally. ♥️Your donations go directly to families like these and and children like Brianna. Thank you. 🎗️www.thekccf.org/donate (link in bio!)#kccf #elanalailakoenig #childhoodcancer #cancersupport #cancercommunity #cancersurvivor #cancerfree #cancerfighter #awareness #attackingcancer #giveback #makeadifference #philanthropy #peopletv #peoplemagazine #donate #cancer #pediatriccancer #pediatriccancerfoundation #pediatriccancerawareness #childhoodcancerawareness #helpcancerpatients #raisefunds
