Mckenna's Leukemia Fund
This fund is to support McKenna Voss and her family during her fight against Bi-Phenotypic Acute Leukemia. All donations will be used to ensure that her family is able to stay with her while still paying all of their bills- rent, car payments, insurance, gas, daycare for McKenna's sister, Eva, and any other day to day expenses that they have while not working. Our goal is to allow Branden, Mary and Eva to be with McKenna as much as possible.
All unused funds will be given back to the foundations that are giving so much to them!
Latest Update
Hello everyone! I just wanted to send another update on Mckenna! I'm assuming that most have been following along on social media but for those who have not been...here we are! It looks like my last update was when we were waiting for her bone morrow transplant to kick in...which it never did and was deemed as a failed transplant. After that, they found another donor to try a second transplant and Kenna had to go through another round of chemo before that one. But all is now well!! Her second transplant was a success and she is currently in a townhouse close to Hershey hospital. Not home but not a hospital room!! She is actually on track to leave there and come home within the next week or two, so we are truly looking forward to that! Thank you again for your continued support and prayers...she's finally winning!!!!!

Happy New Year! As this crazy year comes to an end, we just wanted to send the biggest thank you to all of you who have supported Mckenna through thoughts, prayers, contributions and just being there for her and her family. She is currently still in the hospital waiting for the bone marrow to kick in and start producing blood cells that will boost her immune system so that she can finally get out of there! She has already been in twice as long as a typical transplant patient. We are praying hard that it will happen soon so that she does not have to have another bone marrow transplant. (She will not be happy about that...!) But really, we just want to again say THANK YOU for your support this past year and we are hoping that next year will bring some better news!!

On March 15th, we finally heard the news- McKenna's tumor that they found behind her eye just a week and a half earlier, was malignant. **Cue world crumbling** Since then, we have learned that she has Bi-phenotypic Acute Leukemia. Instead of just one type of leukemia, she has aspects of both. She's always been an overachiever.... But this spunky little 7-year-old has no plan of backing down. She already had multiple rounds of chemo and she's still smiling! Hershey Medical Center is AMAZING and will be paying for a lot of McKenna's expenses. However, she needs her parents more than anything and when Branden and Mary aren't working, they aren't earning. So their income has been cut to about 1/4 of what it was. This fund is to help them cover their daily expenses- groceries, gas, car payments, insurance payments, day care for Eva, etc. so that they can spend their time taking care of McKenna! Unused funds will go back to those who helped take such good care of her!!
