Join the fight with Isabelle Thompson!
Thank you for your continued love and support for Isabelle. Diagnosed with pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia on August 4th 2021, she has asked that all donations in her honor go towards high risk leukemia studies, including Dr Cooper's (Todd Michael Cooper, DO (seattlechildrens.org)) research study that she is participating in for her treatment, and which spans patients, oncologists and hematologists across the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (Seattle Children's, Fred Hutch, etc) and leading pediatric research hospitals nationally, with the goal of also benefitting children diagnosed with this disease internationally. With only 4% of funding going towards pediatric cancer research annually in the United States, and cancers that affect children are genetically and biologically distinct from those that affect adults, donations from generous people like you help people like Isabelle and so many others as their battle continues.
We know that giving is a deeply personal decision, and we appreciate you considering giving towards research for pediatric leukemia.
With much love,
The Thompson family

Your donation of blood could save a life! Gime them CODE IZZY when you donate!!
Isabelle Thompson, CMAC athlete, was diagnosed with pediatric Acute Meyeloid Leukemia on August 4, 2021. The quantity of blood she has consumed throughout her treatment has emphasized just how important blood donors are. Isabelle wouldn't be here without the blood transfusions she has already received. Now there is a new challenge - a severe shortage of blood. Operation Code Red is in effect now. Your donation of blood could save a life! Give them CODE IZZY when you donate!!
