One At A Time

⚾ This biggest Reds fan is playing the toughest game of his life, and conquering cancer is the home run he’s fighting for. 💪🏻

This week, Hayden and his family made another trip from Kentucky to Wisconsin, hoping for the words they’ve been praying to hear. While doctors saw encouraging signs that his treatment is working, they still couldn’t get a clear enough view of his tumor to confirm the outcome they’re hoping for.

So once again, they wait.
Wait for the blood in Hayden’s eye to clear.
Wait for more answers.
Wait for the next appointment on July 1st.

But through every mile traveled, every hospital visit, and every uncertainty that comes with childhood cancer, Hayden continues to do what kids do best—dream.

He dreams about baseball.
He dreams about Monster Jam.
And yes... he still dreams about Disney.

That’s why Hayden’s DREAM TRIP campaign is still going strong.

Because while doctors continue working toward healing his body, we want to give Hayden and his family something incredible to look forward to.

Every photo you see here is a reminder that Hayden is so much more than his diagnosis. He’s a baseball-loving little boy with a huge smile, a resilient spirit, and a family that refuses to give up hope.

And neither have we.
Please keep Hayden in your prayers as he prepares for his next appointment on July 1st.

One day, we hope he’ll trade hospital halls for castle walls, treatment schedules for adventures, and difficult days for memories that will last a lifetime. Let’s make that Disney Dream Trip for Hayden!

While the world keeps moving, families like Hayden’s continue facing battles most people never see. Today, we’re shining a light on his journey, the strength, the fight, and the hope his family continues to hold onto every single day. 💛

Unfortunately, progress with Hayden’s chemo injections had been very slow, which led his doctors to enroll him in a new clinical trial that began in March. As part of this treatment, Hayden had two chemoplaques attached to the outer surface of his eye to deliver chemotherapy directly to the cancer over the course of 8 weeks.

At Hayden’s 4-week checkup, his doctor was very encouraged by the progress and hopeful for a complete response by the end of treatment.

We are not letting cancer define or take away the world of this little boy. We’ve been rooting for Hayden since day one, and we will keep standing with him every step of the way until he gets to that Disney Dream Trip he deserves. 💛

His campaign is currently at $774, let’s come together and push it to $1,000 before the end of the day. Let's send Hayden to Disney! 🏰🥳

Today, we pause for something more important—
Prayers for Evelyn. 💛

We’ve learned that she will be undergoing two surgeries soon, a selective dorsal rhizotomy and tendon lengthening.

Tomorrow is another big day.
Her MRI will determine if she also needs brain surgery at the same time.

It’s a lot for one little girl to carry.

Please keep Evelyn in your prayers tonight. 💛

Have you ever met someone whose smile is so contagious, you’d never know they’re fighting so much behind it?

We see that kind of strength in kids every single day—
quiet battles, unseen pain… and still, they choose to smile..

That’s Evelyn.
That’s all of them.

This week hasn’t been easy for Evelyn… 😔 Cluster seizures, sickness, and increased meds—just a lot of rest and fighting through it quietly.

Next week, on the 24th, she has a major MRI & shunt study. This is the family’s big one! this will determine if she needs brain surgery now… or if they can wait 6 more months.

Her campaign is now at $6,198.13, just a couple of more steps away from the goal!

Let’s give this family something to look forward to shall we? Let’s send them to DISNEY!

Did you know? The tradition of Easter egg hunts dates back to Germany in the 1700s. Children would search for eggs hidden by the “Easter Hare,” a symbol of new life and spring. 🌸

Today, it’s become a fun tradition celebrated all over the world, bringing families together for moments filled with joy, laughter, and a little bit of magic. 💛

Sharing Evelyn and her family’s Easter! Hope you had a fantastic one too. ✨

And… GOOD NEWS! $2,527.25 raised for Evelyn’s campaign!

Let’s keep going! Let’s bring her closer to Disney. 💖✨

✨ Guess what? $2,113.54 was raised! What a week! 💛

Because of YOU, Evelyn’s dream is getting closer every single day. We are so incredibly grateful for every donation, every share, and every bit of love poured into her journey. ✨

But let’s keep the momentum going…

Just look at this family, they deserve every bit of the magic they’re about to experience at Disney. 💖

Can we reach $3,000 by the end of today? ✨

Let’s make it happen!

What is Encephalitis? 🧠 It is a condition where the brain becomes inflamed, most often due to a viral infection. It is considered rare, affecting an estimated 1 to 14 people per 100,000 each year, but when it occurs, especially in infants and young children, it can be life-threatening.

The swelling in the brain can impact essential functions, sometimes leading to seizures, vision loss, developmental delays, or long-term neurological challenges.

In Evelyn’s case, encephalitis in infancy caused lasting brain damage, leading to complex medical conditions including seizures (epilepsy), cerebral palsy, partial blindness, and significant developmental and neurological challenges. 💛

Despite everything, Evelyn continues to show incredible strength and resilience every day. And now, we’re on a mission to make some magic happen for her!

Help send Evelyn to Disney! ✨
