There is some very sad news regarding Jordyn.

Yesterday Jordyn had a test done which showed that despite the intense treatment she’s been undergoing at Boston Children’s Hospital, her bone marrow is saturated with cancer cells. The doctors sat down with Jordyn and her parents and they were given three options of what to do next. The choice that was made is that Jordyn will go home and receive oral chemotherapy there. She may be home by the end of the week.

As you can imagine, there are no words to describe this situation and the shock and pain the family is in. It is hard even to write these words. However, Jordyn has so many people who have loved and prayed for her through the years that it is important to get this information out.

We want to try to organize a big welcoming for Jordyn by having anyone who loves her line the side of her driveway, road, etc as she gets to her house. We are unsure at this moment when exactly she will be coming home, but please check back here often for more updates as all this gets figured out.

Jordyn will still be under heavy limitations in terms of visitors and will not be able to "mingle" with people who attend the homecoming. But she would love to see the faces of the friends, family and strangers who love her and wish her well.

We need help in organizing this homecoming, the logistics, spreading the word, etc. If you can help or have ideas please email me.

Thank you.

  1. What about contacting St Judes or the cancer treatment centers of America? Maybe there's something more that can be done.
    I saw her story in the paper and have been checking to see how she's doing.
    Jordyn, you are a very brave little girl.
