Newest Update

Journal entry by Chloe Carling

Hi everyone,

I'd like to share an update on Island's recent activities and progress. She's been quite the busy bee, attending parties, weddings, and mall hangouts, making the most of her time. Island is now looking at about five more rounds of chemotherapy, and she's approaching the conclusion of her radiation treatment for the main tumor next week. After that, she'll be back in the hospital for the 7th out of 12 rounds of chemotherapy.

Island also recently attended her cousins' wedding, where she had an exciting encounter with a TikTokker she follows who happened to be wearing the same outfit, and also on crutches. It was a fun and memorable moment for her.

Additionally, Island started school about two weeks ago and has been attending on the days when she's feeling well, which is a positive step forward. This week, during her blood transfusion, she had a special visit from the U of U football players, which brought a lot of excitement into her day.

Despite these positive moments, it's important to remember that we still have a long journey ahead, and your continued love and support mean the world to us.

Thank you for standing by Island and our family during this challenging time.
