Hello everyone! I know times have been tough for everyone lately. But I have decided to make this page for a very close friend of mine. She is one of the strongest person I know and would give you the shirt off her back! Due to her son being sick, she will be out of work for while! Please read Kemars story below! Anything will help even just sharing his story! Thank you all.
On February 16th 2017 Just 10 days after Kemar turned 8 months old. His family heard the devastating words no parent should never have to hear: Your Child Has Cancer... And with those 4 words their changed have lives forever...
Innocent and sweet Kemar has been diagnosed with Neuroblastoma Stage IV with tumors throughout his body from head to toe. This has all come to a shock to his family because Kemar has never shown any signs of discomfort or pain; he has been a very happy child laughing , playing and growing.
For a month his family had to stay at the hospital to watch him endure and see Kemar progress with more tumors spreading
throughout his body, having every scan you can imagine along with a bone marrow biopsy, surgery to remove a tumor in his ankle which led to the diagnosis and also a central line placed to keep him from pulling out his I. V.
Kemar has already begun his battle and started chemotherapy . For about 6 months Kemar received treatment and was tested again to see if the treatment is working or progressing.
After 3 days of treatment and being home for a couple of days he had already begun to be in pain , and not eat regularly due to having a lot of nausea followed by vomiting due to the exposure to the radiation along with all the medication he has to take in between the Chemo treatments. In September of 2017 his treatment stopped and he went on the Watch observation and that has continued every 3-6 months going forward .
Now just 10 days on June 16th 2020 after his 4th Birthday a lump was noticed on his face , Kemar received all necessary scans and bone marrow biopsy done and the hardest news was given again. Kemar Cancer has had a relapse and his Cancer returned and with a vengeance . So far up to date he has had 3 rounds of Chemotherapy six days each Cycle , 3 Blood Transfusions and many Covid -19 screenings as well. A Stem Cell Collection where he was placed on a ventilator to be able to do the procedure because of his age and way more treatment to go. The last Cycle of treatment he started experiencing severe nausea . It took a week to subdue . With the Pandemic at hand it has been hard on everyone let alone Kemar because he could not be around a crowd let alone any other family members now with him being in Active Treatment he can only be around immediate family .
Kemar also has 3 other siblings at home and are also suffering because of this unforeseen occurrence and really could use the extra help with the cost of living and any other financial needs they may have. Their mom had to stop working to ensure Kemar could be treated properly and make all of his appointments.
So please we are asking that family , friends and all those great people out there join together and raise some money for this family in need. Any amount no matter what it is will be appreciated.
United together we can help his family focus on what really matters, ensuring Kemar has every possible advantage in his corners rectify his sickness and also as this family prepares for the fight of their lives!!!
Prayers for strength and healing are very much appreciated as this family continues to battle this cancer
