Help Gwen In Her Battle Against Cancer
Make a donation.
Gwen and her family need your help now more than ever. 5 year old Gwen was recently diagnosed with a DIPG tumor, a rare cancer at the base of the brain stem. She is currently at Children’s hospital and has undergone surgery to relieve symptoms of the tumor. She has lots of medical expenses piling up, including clinical trials to fight this cancer. Her mother, Christan, is also currently pregnant. This money will go towards medical expenses for Gwen, as well as the financial burden of travel, time off work, food, and other expenses for the family as they help Gwen through this tough time.

We also created an Amazon wish list for some things we need for Gwen, our 5 year old Princess who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated; you don’t have to buy the quantities that are on the list. We are turning a room into hers and we need bedding for her parents. Lots of cleaning supplies since she has a PICC line. We need to have extra blankets and sheets in case of accidents. Pull-ups and wipes as well as her needs change. I have added a few things to help decorate her room too. We need a monitor to be able to keep an eye on her because she is unstable so we need to be around if she wakes up or tries to get up. If you think of anything else you think we might need I haven’t listed please feel free to send it to us. Thank you. If you can’t help, please share.
About Gwen
Shortly after her 5th birthday, Gwen started having difficulty with her coordination. After visiting her doctor in Tyler, she was told to travel to Dallas for further testing. After a long and difficult full day at the hospital, they found a mass in her brain. Unfortunately, the mass was determined to be a DIPG tumor, a rare cancer at the base of the brain stem. This website has been created in order to raise awareness, gather donations for Gwen’s medical expenses, and for loved ones to follow Gwen’s journey and leave encouraging words.

This picture popped up in my photos this morning on my phone. July 22. Gwen after going swimming. She never wanted to get out of the pool. There was always a fight to get her out of it. This is Gwen almost 6 months to the day before she was diagnosed with DIPG and she was perfect with absolutely no signs of being sick. We had no idea and I would do absolutely anything to go back to this. (Gwen is still perfect and she always will be but I wish she was disease free and never had to go through any of this.) So many tears shed already this morning it’s going to be a long day. 😭 Please keep praying for our Perfect Princess Gwen our little Bean! 💕💕💕

I got another beautiful pic from Gwen today! She had a crappy day with the electricity off. It had her so upset she said “Oh Duck Cakes” when it went off. It was off all day. She was still happy to send me a pic. I definitely don’t feel like I deserve her but I will thank God for every day I get to be her G. Please keep praying for our Perfect Princess Gwen our Little Bean! 💕💕💕
