Serenity’s Story

Site created on June 8, 2021

Serenity has been struggling with excruciating back pain for months this year, missing a heartbreaking amount of school and regular life. She had a cyst surgically removed in late May, but this gave only temporary relief. Finally, the doctors discovered that she had a mass near her sacrum, and pathology reports revealed a malignant tumor. Let's show the love to her and the von Gohren family by supporting them in any way we can: prayers, letters and cards, groceries, meals, gofund me, and more.
