Kendric is a 3 year old boy who was diagnosed with medulloblastoma (brain cancer.) Kendric started vomiting a few mornings about a month ago. Thank you!

Kendric Campbell, a sweet and adorable 3 year old boy from Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, has been diagnosed with Medulloblastoma. After multiple visits to the doctors everyone thought it was “reflux”. Kendric's parents had enough and demanded for something to be done. Kendric was sent for a CT scan where it showed he had a brain tumour. The tumour was located on/near his brain stem. Kendric and

his mother Erica were flown from their hometown in Moncton, New Brunswick to Halifax, Nova Scotia to meet with a specialist at the IWK Health Centre on Monday, October 10, 2011. His father Mark and 8-month old brother Davis have joined them in Halifax in what is turning out to be a very heart-wrenching time for their family. While at the IWK, they were told the brain tumour was inoperable. This was a very difficult time for Mark & Erica. After further consultation, the medical staff decided that they would operate on Friday, October 14th. With a 50/50 chance, Kendric made it through a 9.5 hour brain surgery. The sweet little boy showed his strength that day!! The next day, the MRI showed that the doctors were able to remove all of the tumour from the brain. The next step was to complete the pathology to determine what type they tumour it was. Four days after the surgery, the results showed that it was malignant and called medulloblastoma. Kendric must now go through an extensive chemotherapy and radiation treatment for the next 24 months, still staying at the IWK in Halifax, NS.. several hours drive from his home. The family's hardship does not end there! His mother Erica, is on maternity leave with their 8 month old son. To make matters worse Mark is unable to work due to the travel commitments and to be with his family. We are asking for any support that you could provide--- If you can raise money at work, do a zumba class, bake sale, donate, provide gift cards.. or be creative to provide this family with one more miracle---it would be greatly appreciated......

Thanks for everything and keep praying,

We are coming to the end of our IWK journey, and I am actually feeling at peace with it. Something I never thought I would say....

We have been discharged from the Hematology Clinic and just have 2 clinics left: Nephrology with Dr. Acott and Neurology with Dr. Huntsman. Kendric will have a few painful and extensive tests before the end of the year and then transition to the QEII Adult Neuro world. We also meet with Sick Kids in November and then Boston Children’s in December.

It feels surreal to be at this point. After so many years of appointments, tests, treatments, hospital stays, good news, scary news and everything in between, we are finally starting to see the end of this chapter at the IWK...And as we head into September, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, it feels especially meaningful to reflect on where this all began. 🎗️ Kendric was just 3 years old when childhood cancer changed our family’s life forever. So much of what has followed, the treatments, the late effects, the strokes, the endless appointments and the strength he has shown through all of it all stems from that little boy who bravely fought childhood brain cancer. September will always carry a lot of emotion for our family, but it is also a reminder of just how incredibly far our Super Kendric has come.

Here’s to the next chapter, Superman. Go get ’em. 💙

A quick stop at the IWK during Kendric’s first Frosh Week.

In the middle of all the excitement of starting university, we made a little trip back to the IWK to see the last three specialists who continue to be involved in Kendric’s care: Neurology, Hematology and Nephrology. As always, we’re hoping for good appointments and good news.

With all the craziness of university move-in and Frosh Week, we realized we completely forgot to do some fundraising for a cause that is near and dear to all of our hearts, and especially to Kendric. Super Kendric’s Crusaders are hitting the trails in just a few weeks! We run for EVERYONE who has fought cancer, is fighting cancer, or will one day hear those devastating words, “You have cancer.” But most of all, we run for the kids. The kids who have had to battle through this horrific, life-changing disease and face things no child should ever have to face.
Kendric knows firsthand how much cancer can change a life. He also knows how important it is to have people beside you every step of the way.

If you’d like to join Super Kendric’s Crusaders, we would absolutely love to have you on our team! And if you’re able to make a donation, please know that it means more to us than you could ever know. Every dollar helps us continue to support the fight against cancer. Click the link below, and we promise to bring you along for every step of the journey! 🏃‍♂️💙

Our superman is officially a Mount Allison student 💙. Momma has all kinds of emotions today dropping him off. As hard as it is to let him go, I know he is ready...

It's your time now Kendric. Go experience life, make memories, meet amazing people, chase your dreams, and never be afraid to go after EVERYTHING you want 💫.

There are officially TWO WEEKS until my young warrior makes his Mount Allison debut. 💛

Kendric has had such a great summer, taking some much needed time to just chill, enjoy his friends and family, and soak up these last few weeks before this next incredible chapter begins.
In just two weeks, he’ll be moving into his new “home” in Sackville… at his dream university. I honestly couldn’t be more excited for him. I’m so eager to see all the memories he’s going to make, the adventures he’s going to have, the people he’s going to meet, and all the dreams he’s going to chase.
Of course, I’ll worry nonstop. I will call a lot. I WILL text obsessively 😆. I’ll probably make the occasional “drop-in.” And I’m sure I’ll find approximately 47 reasons to check on him. But the truth is, I’ve been preparing for this day my whole life. Kendric has always been so determined in EVERYTHING he does. He has always chased the BIG dreams, even when the road to get there wasn’t easy. And because I know how fiercely he wants this and how hard he has worked for it, I have no choice but to let him go and stand back, cheering from the sidelines.

And then there’s this…
He has officially almost paid for his entire first year of university through scholarships. 🎓 I will share all the exceptional foundations that chose to support our super K once I can.

What makes me even more proud is that he has done this ALL BY HIMSELF. He worked hard, applied, told his story, shared his dreams, embraced his community, and earned every single opportunity that has come his way. We are beyond thankful to every scholarship foundation that has believed in Kendric, invested in his future, and is helping him pursue his passions. Your support means more to our family than you will ever know. He WILL make each and every one of you proud. 🫶

Go chase those dreams, follow your heart and shoot for the stars my Kendric.

Your biggest adventure is just beginning. PS My air mattress is already in the trunk incase you need me 🤣.

To my Kendric, on your high school graduation, I'm not much of a writer anymore with my new brain, but I wanted to write you a little graduation message..

I still remember the night before your first day of kindergarten. I barely slept, wondering how on earth I was going to leave you at school for the day. Then morning came, and off we went.
I remember my heart pounding, feeling flushed and dizzy, trying to remind myself to breathe. But more than anything, I remember your face. The "please don't leave me" face. I carried you into the school. By then, I was so used to carrying you everywhere. After everything you had already gone through, I think my arms were your safe place. When I tried to put you down, you wrapped yourself around my neck so tightly that I still remember the little claw marks you left behind. You screamed, you kicked, you cried. I tried so hard not to fall apart. The teachers literally had to pry you out of my arms. The moment I walked out of that school, I broke down. I couldn't imagine how either of us was going to do that every day.....But we did.

Together...Just like we did with everything else life threw our way.

The years passed. You graduated from Bessborough and headed off to high school. I remember thinking about all the fun memories you were going to make. Then freshman year changed everything...Your first stroke took the use of your right side among many other things...Watching you go through that was the hardest thing I have ever witnessed. After everything we had already been through together, this one completely crushed me. I think it was because you understood exactly what was happening. You knew what you had lost, and I couldn't fix it for you. But then I watched something incredible happen...I watched you slowly rebuild yourself. Every movement, every therapy session, every accomplishment that most people would never think twice about became another step forward. It wasn't easy, and there were days when you were frustrated. But you kept going...Somewhere during that journey, you discovered just how capable you really were. You poured yourself into school. You set your sights on Mount Allison, and from that moment on, nothing was going to distract you from that goal. You worked harder than anyone I know, determined to prove, not to anyone else, but to yourself..that your future would never be defined by what happened to you. While others saw report cards, I saw the determination behind every grade. I saw the late nights, the perseverance, and the strength it took to succeed after everything your brain had been through.

And now here we are. You graduated high school! You did it!

Kendric, I hope you know this diploma represents so much more than four years of school. It represents every obstacle you've faced and every single time you refused to let those obstacles define your future. When I watched you walk across that stage, I couldn't help but think about that little boy who held onto my neck so tightly because he didn't want me to leave him on his first day of kindergarten. Somewhere between that little boy and the young man who crossed the graduation stage, you became one of the strongest, kindest, courageous, and most determined people I know. You have overcome more than most people will face in a lifetime, yet you've never stopped believing in yourself or your dreams. There are no words big enough to tell you how proud I am to be your mom.

Congratulations, my graduate. Mount Allison is so lucky to have you, and I can't wait to watch you chase your next dream 💫.

Love Mom 💙

Just like that, much like high school itself, graduation week is over....As I sit here reflecting on everything this week has meant, I find myself overwhelmed with pride and gratitude.

Kendric officially graduated from McNaughton High with Honours AND Distinction, earning a 91% GPA!! Those numbers are impressive, but they only tell a small part of the story. What they don't show are the countless hours of hard work, determination, perseverance, and courage it took to get here. Kendric was ALWAYS working, studying and focused on school. Absolutely nothing was getting in his way...

There were many moments when the road ahead looked different than we had once imagined. High school wasn't about making the varsity basketball team or attending the cool parties anymore, it quickly became about the basic things like walking the halls without his rollator, not having to use the elevator or using his paralyzed hand again to simply hold a pencil...Kendric refused to let obstacles define him. He showed up, worked incredibly hard, pushed himself, and kept moving forward. Watching him chase his dreams with such determination has been one of the greatest privileges of my life.

To say I am proud doesn't seem like enough.... I am truly in awe of the young man he has become. His strength, resilience, kindness, and unwavering belief that anything is possible have inspired everyone around him. This week wasn't just about a diploma, it was about celebrating EVERY challenge he overcame to earn it.

Thank you to our family, friends, and community who have stood beside him throughout this journey. Thank you to the teachers, educational assistants, coaches, administrators, and school staff who believed in him, encouraged him, and helped him see what was possible. There are so many of you who have played a role in his success, and we will never forget the impact you've had on his life.

We are also deeply grateful to the Ron Smyth Scholarship, the Lutz/Lutes Family Scholarship, the Wee College Scholarship, the Three Fathers Memorial Scholarship, and the Rene "Pepsi" Memorial Scholarship for believing in Kendric and investing in his future. Your support means more than you know. HE WILL make you all proud.

And now, as he prepares for the next chapter, we are incredibly thankful to his dream school, Mount Allison University for awarding him a $12,000 entrance scholarship. To see a university recognize the potential we have always seen in him is such a special gift. I can't wait to watch you shine there!!

Kendric, you have taught us that courage isn't about never facing challenges, it's about refusing to give up when they come. You have exceeded every expectation, not because of your marks or awards, but because of the person YOU are...

I have never been more proud of a human being than I am of you.

Go chase those dreams, my boy. The world has no idea what you're capable of yet. ❤️🎓💙

Kendric's Prom 💛

06/15/2026

It’s a BIG week for our super graduate, prom tomorrow and graduation on Thursday.

I have never been more proud of a human being than I am right now. Watching you work so hard and stay dedicated to your academics, despite all the other crap life has thrown at you, has amazed me. Most people will never truly understand how much you've had to overcome just to get here.

This week is about celebrating everything YOU have accomplished. Every challenge, every setback, every long day, and every victory brought you to this moment.

You deserve every single moment of this week, Kendric. Soak it all in. We couldn't be prouder. ❤️🎓
