KILLIAN PARKER
Killian is a 3-year-old baby boy from Azusa, California who was diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) in August of last year, 2022.

Unfortunately, he had an allergic reaction to chemotherapy called the PEG, he had 18 shots of chemo called rylaze which had to be used since he couldn’t receive the PEG infusion, close to 10 blood and platelet transfusions; he lost his ability to walk a few times as the chemotherapy vincristine effects this.
