our happily ever avery’s journey
On Wednesday, December 16, we received devastating news.
Our sweet baby was diagnosed with Pre B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Cancer.
At 2 months.
Incredibly rare at her age. Yet here we are.
Follow her journey with infantile Leukemia.
Our favorites
Cancer doesn’t rule every part of Avery’s life. We refuse to let it. This is a collection of our favorite just “good days.”
BMT DAY +143
Today was a lot. We just wanted someone to tell us Avery was fine. She felt better after a nap and some meds. A bit groggy, but better.
BMT DAY +142
If Avery has taught us anything, it’s how to be resilient. Strong. Avery continues to dance, smile, even giggle every day.
BMT DAY +141
This silly, happy girl has had another great day! She hasn’t napped, yet she’s still in such a good mood. It’s been an amazing week for her!
OH HI! I’M avery!
I’m so happy you’re here!
I can’t exactly say I’m happy to be here, or that I’m delighted that we’re meeting this way. BUT, I can say THANK YOU for all of your love and support in this journey.

Diagnosis
It took a couple days for us to get an official diagnosis. Learn what initially raised alarms, the tests she had, and how we learned about her Pre B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Life at Home
Avery has spent most of her first year in the hospital, so we try to make each moment of her time at home as enjoyable as possible. At the very least, it’s about spending time with Big Sis!
Helpful Terms
We all know that navigating cancer comes with a learning curve. We’ve put together a list of Leukemia vernacular to help as we continue through Avery’s journey.
