Journal entry by Ashleigh Walter —
Yesterday, we had a virtual doctor’s appointment for Lani regarding fertility preservation, and we’re grateful for the insights gained. Learning about the benefits and success stories of this procedure was eye opening. We learned of the 200 babies born from other girls that have done the same procedure. As many of you know, Lani loves to play with dolls and looks forward to having kids of her own one day. By moving forward with fertility preservation we hope to bring that possibility closer. She’ll undergo a procedure to have an ovary removed and stored until she’s ready to start a family.
In other news, we’re excited to share the date for our Make-A-Wish trip! April 14-20, we will be heading to a resort in Orlando for a special experience before Lani’s bone marrow transplant this summer. We’ll spend time at Disney, Universal, and Discovery Cove to swim with dolphins. We’re deeply grateful for this opportunity to create lasting memories.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
