Sweetheart Bake Sale
Our friend and brave lil'cancer warrior Jillian Sharp and member of the RFL Team WILMS WARRIORS will be having her 3rd annual Sweetheart Bake Sale!!! Jillian and her friends in the past two years have had a bake sale to raise money for the American Cancer Society. In just two short years, Jillian’s team has raised a little over $16,000!
This year, the “Sweetheart Bakers” are going to do something different with the proceeds of this year’s bake sale. Jillian’s friend, Gabe… who lives here in Shawnee, has just recently relapsed with neuroblastoma. He was given a 30% chance of survival and with the relapse, his chance of survival is even smaller. Gabe’s mom is a teacher in the Olathe School District and the family recently found out that Gabe’s treatment has been denied because his treatment is deemed “experimental.” Children’s Mercy can no longer offer the treatment he needs so he left January 25th and will be treated at a hospital in California who treats relapse neuroblastoma. The family is not sure how they are going to pay for treatments but as any parent would, they are not going to give up and will find a way to hopefully save their son.
