Reese Osmond, an 11-year-old resident of Lacey, has experienced a lot. She was diagnosed with an acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) diagnosis at the young age of two and a half. And earlier in March, her family learned that her cancer had reappeared a fourth time after nearly two years in remission.
Her family wrote on her
Facebook page, "We never thought we would be back here, but here we are.
Reese is currently receiving chemotherapy and immunotherapy at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia accompanied by her mother, Jordyn Osmond. Following this, Reese will require a bone marrow transplant this summer, according to her mother.
While her husband remains in Lacey to work and take care of their second daughter Ryleigh, Osmond had to quit her job to be at her daughter's side.
Osmond hopes to come home soon, but they must visit CHOP again in June for the transplant. She estimated that they would spend around 30 days in the hospital after that and then 100 days in a Philadelphia apartment.
Unfortunately, word reached Reese's family that her sister Ryleigh wasn't a good match for Reese. Since there was only a 25% possibility that she would have been a match, her physicians weren't shocked.
Still, they start looking through the registry now. Reese appears to have several solid alternatives, they noted, but they won't know for sure for some time.
