This benefit page was set up for my 6 year old son, Justin Heilmann, who was diagnosed with Leukemia on January 28, 2011. The type of Leukemia he has is called Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). Here is a brief explanation of what he has…
“ALL is a fast-growing cancer of the white blood cells. It accounts for approximately 80% of all childhood leukemias and 20% of all adult leukemias. ALL results
when cancerous white blood cells multiply and overtake normal white blood cells. As the cancerous cells begin to crowd out the normal blood cells, you can become more susceptible to bleeding and infection. These types of cells can be found in bone marrow, blood, lymph nodes, spleen, and other organs.” www.cancercenter.com
We are in process of putting together a BBQ Benefit and Silent Auction. The date and location are still being worked out and the information will be posted as soon as it is available. In the mean time we have been asked by several people how they can donate money now to help with his medical bills and monthly living expenses so we started a PayPal Account that will be attached to this benefit page. The email address for the PayPal donation account is [email protected]
I will do my best to keep this page up to date with Justin’s progress and pictures as we go threw the steps of getting him CURED from Leukemia! I want to say THANK YOU for all your support and prayers as we go threw this Very long process. We are very lucky to have such an awesome family and friends who have stepped up and supported our family in ALL ways!!
