Cye Zamora

Cye is a 4-year-old boy from Albuquerque, New Mexico, diagnosed with High-Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in May 2023.

Before his diagnosis, Cye enjoyed outdoor activities, dancing, singing, family vacations, swimming, playing with toys, and spending time with his siblings and friends. He was energetic, cheerful, funny, and talkative and had an impressive knowledge of dinosaurs.

However, when he started experiencing symptoms like knee pain, fatigue, a low appetite, sudden bruises, refusal to walk, pale skin, and swollen lymph nodes behind his head, his mom took him to the Emergency Room. His mom initially thought he had a cold but felt something was wrong. After a second opinion at urgent care, they rushed to the main hospital, where he was diagnosed with High-Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Since being diagnosed, Cye has had difficulty walking and developed neuropathy. He deals with fatigue, nausea, weight fluctuations, and changes in appetite. He also experiences sporadic physical pain and emotional ups and downs, missing his family and friends and the ability to enjoy outings.

Cye has a strong passion for dinosaurs and superheroes, using their courage as inspiration when facing fears. He often says, "I'll be strong like Hulk!" and "I'm tough like a T-Rex."

Cye has undergone extensive medical treatments, including chemotherapy, transfusions, and procedures, leading to isolation, hospital stays, and side effects requiring medication adjustments.

His mom said, “This dream would be a chance to experience joy and give him a light amid what he has to endure. It would allow us to let go of our current stresses, anxieties, and fears and enjoy the smiles on each other's faces.”

That is why we are on a mission to raise $5,000 to send Cye and his family on a unique journey to Disney World and Give Kids the World. This trip will allow them to make joyful memories in a different, stress-free place!

Alexus Campbell

Alexus, a 17-year-old girl from Chickasha, Oklahoma, was diagnosed with Stage 3 kidney cancer in May 2021.

Before her diagnosis, Alexus was very active. She loved to swim, be outdoors, jump on the trampoline, and she loved to ride bikes with her siblings.

When the doctor told them about Alexus having cancer, her mom recalls, “I felt like a pain hit my stomach & I was extremely upset & mad at the same time. I felt like it was unfair for her to have to go through this. I felt like I wanted to take it for her. She was quiet. After the doctors left, she cried and said why did this happen to me?”

This diagnosis has had a profound impact on her life, stealing away important teenage experiences and physical abilities. She faces feelings of not fitting in and has encountered numerous challenges that no child should have to go through.

The family's quality time together has been greatly diminished, and they are also struggling financially due to the costs of her medical treatment. Alexus has faced a series of hardships that no child should have to endure, including fighting cancer, enduring harsh treatments, dealing with hair loss, feeling isolated at school, and coping with physical issues like neuropathy.

Due to her mother's inability to work due to the situation, the family's financial condition has worsened, adding more strain. Additionally, Alexus's siblings have experienced prolonged separations from her. When they do manage to spend time together, her appearance is troubling, leading to worries about her overall health and condition.

We believe that this dream trip will be the way for Alexus and her siblings to smile, laugh, and be free from fear and struggles. This is their chance for their much-needed moments of pure happiness.

Our goal is to raise $5,000 to send Alexus and her family on a special trip to Disney World and Give Kids the World. This amazing adventure will provide them with an opportunity to escape their daily routine and create new wonderful memories together as a family!

Paxton is a 7-year-old boy from San Antonio, Texas, who was first diagnosed with Medulloblastoma back in April of 2021 and relapsed this year in April of 2023 with Leptomeningeal spread to the lining of his brain.

Prior to being diagnosed, Paxton was known for his adventurous spirit. However, this illness has altered his willingness to engage in new activities. He missed the ability to have real play dates as he couldn’t keep up with other kids despite how hard he tried.

Within three weeks, he underwent multiple brain surgeries, received proton radiation targeted at both his brain and spine, endured intense chemotherapy sessions, and underwent blood and platelet transfusions.

As his mom recalls, “he has already watched many of his friends pass away with this cancer and is scared he is going to die also.”

Paxton is in Hospice right now but still never fails to light up the room with his presence and the funny faces he makes. He is fighting this battle with all he's got.

Our goal is to raise $5,000 to send Paxton and his family on a special trip to Disney World and Give Kids The World. This trip will give them the chance to create new joyful memories together in a different setting, away from all these struggles!

NATALIE RIMEL

Natalie is a 14-year-old young lady from Los Lunas, New Mexico who was diagnosed with Brain Tumor in April of 2019.

Getting the news of Natalie's diagnosis was a mix of emotions for her family. Mom said "We were glad they knew what it was but it was also a punch in the gut hearing that your child has a brain tumor. Then a million questions go through your mind and the doctors aren't yet prepared to answer them."

We may not be able to comprehend what she has gone through because Natalie has not only had to go through 1 brain tumor diagnosis but 3 different brain tumor diagnoses, an optic pathway glioma in 2019, this tumor damaged her eyesight, pituitary and adrenal glands and the chemo damaged her hearing, Anaplastic astrocytoma in 2020 which left more damage. The 3rd tumor appeared in January of this year, Her doctors ran tests and determined that it was more aggressive than the 1st tumor but less aggressive than the 2nd tumor.

Before all of these, Natalie was a wild child and so full of energy. She had no fear, willing to do just about anything. She loved to write, draw and create. She loved to run, jump, ride her bike, ride the 4-wheeler, go snowboarding, and go on adventures. Because of her diagnosis, Natalie's friends have all moved on without her. She is unable to do a lot of activities that she used to it changed her ability to live a normal 14-year-old life.

These diagnoses may have affected Natalie physically but they did not take away her spirit.

This is why we are on a mission to raise $5,000 to send Natalie and her family on a DREAM Trip to Disney World and Give Kids the World Village where they make new wonderful memories and celebrate the beauty of life together OUTSIDE the HOSPITAL!
