Before she could crawl, Zoey was fighting for her life.
At just 12 weeks old, Zoey was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.
For seven months, her family faced hospital stays, intensive care, and impossible decisions. While doctors fought to save Zoey's life, another battle unfolded outside the hospital: long drives to treatment, meals away from home, missed work, and financial strain that no family plans for.
Today, thanks to lifesaving treatment and the unconditional love from her family—including her big brother Archer, who became her bone marrow donor—Zoey is laughing, walking, and filling her home with hope once again.
Her story is a reminder that no family should have to face childhood cancer alone.
