I'm Riding For
Kayd
This year, I'm riding for a local warrior, Kayd, & his family. Kayd is a fun loving 13-year-old boy, golf enthusiast, amazing son, wonderful big brother to his little sister, Skylar, and a CANCER WARRIOR. He has been fighting his battle with courage and has been fierce every step of the way! Kayd's story... on Sunday 1/17/2021 life changed for Kayd and the HINTZ family. Kayd's mom and dad (Justin & Kelly) took Kayd to the ER, for what was thought to be an ongoing migraine only to be given terrible news. The medical team at Phoenix Children’s Hospital diagnosed Kayd with grade 2 Medulloblastoma brain cancer. Further news revealed the cancer is a form of a rare genetic disorder, Li-Fraumeni a genetic mutation on the Tp53 gene. Kayd’s first surgery was on 1/20/2021. Since that day, Kayd has had to endure 8 surgeries & over 3 years of ongoing back-to-back chemotherapy treatments and a total of 31 days of extensive radiation. MRI’s revealed the cancer has returned, despite his ongoing fight. It has spread to additional regions and hemispheres of the brain including his brain's ventricle, and several areas on his spine & both femurs. On March 27th, Kayd underwent surgery in an attempt to remove as much of the cancer as possible in order to give Kayd & his family as much time as possible, and Kayd continues to receive palliative radiation, which began in April. This plan of care includes Kayd having a port that is currently inserted on top of his head that will give direct chemotherapy into his brain region through the port. Ultimately, this effort is to give Kayd as much time as possible here with us, but there is no cure and his cancer is extremely aggressive. In speaking with Kelly, she agrees that the one thing I can do is get Kayd 's story out there in an effort to spread the word for the importance of Children's Cancer Research. I hope you'll help me support Kayd and the entire HINTZ family, as I ride to honor this incredible youngster and his amazing family.
My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
Randi
