Healing hands for Hayleigh

Healing hands for Hayleigh Hayleigh was diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on 11/2/2022. We thank God everyday for His healing hands.
🎗️🙏🏻🙌🏻 Hayleigh turned 3 in May 2022.

After a hard fought battle with many setbacks & challenges, she rang the bell 1/10/2025. In July 2022, she began running random fevers with no other symptoms & no one else in the home being sick. They would last 3-4 days & go away with Tylenol or Motrin. This would happen every 2-3 weeks. Her pediatrician saw her several times and we were always told is was a virus, cutting teeth, etc. She was seen October 26, 2022 by a new pediatrician & we were told the same thing. That doctor said if her fevers hadn't stopped by the following week, to contact her. Which we did, on October 31, & I pressed for the doctor to draw blood. That blood test was a simple finger prick which showed enough to make the doctor contact hemotology & oncology @ Brenner Childrens Hospital in Winston Salem, NC. Halloween night, October 31, 2022, Hayleigh was sent to Brenner's for direct admission. After many tests, we learned she has ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia).

We all feel it.

The expectation that our lives are "fine now."

But we don’t just go back to normal after childhood cancer.
People expect that moment, don't they?

Treatment ends.
Our child rang the bell.
Appointments slow down.
Scans are clear.

And somehow… that’s supposed to mean you’re “back.”
But nothing about it feels that simple.

Your brain doesn’t work the same.
Your body feels different.
Your energy isn’t what it used to be.
Simple things feel heavier.
Rest doesn’t always feel like rest.
And your mind is still scanning for what could go wrong.
You react faster. And slower.
You worry more. There's so much more.

You carry things other people can’t see.
Even the “good days” can feel complicated.
Because you’re grateful…
but also aware of how quickly everything can change.
How much HAS changed.
And that changes you.

You don’t go back to who you were before.
You become someone who has lived through fire.
Someone who sees things differently.
Someone who is still learning how to feel safe again.
And that takes time.
Healing isn't linear.

Meet Kingsley.
Kingsley is an 11yo 6th grader & lives with his mom, dad and three siblings in Shelby, NC.
Last month, he was diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) - the same as what our Hayleigh was diagnosed with.

Kingsley was admitted to Levine Children's Hospital on February 6th. His mom, Bre, says he received his diagnosis six days later.

“I noticed he was losing weight drastically,” she says. “Then during that big week of the snow he stayed in bed and slept constantly. He complained about neck and leg pain and didn’t have an appetite. He loves Chick-fil-A and wouldn’t even eat that, so I made him a doctor’s appointment. I also took him to the ER twice, but wasn’t satisfied with the results. So, on February 6th, I woke up and brought him to LCH.”

The staff in this ER admitted him and began tests.

Bre says the first red flag was that Kingsley's MRI was abnormal.

“After that he started to spike high fevers,” she says. “They found the cancer after doing a bone marrow biopsy. He started his chemo journey and infusion, and we were discharged to go home.”

A few days later, he spiked a fever and had to go back to Levine Children’s.

“I work a full-time job at Food Lion, where I’ve been for 10 years,” Bre said. “I haven’t been to work much because I haven’t left Kingsley’s side. Kingsley’s Dad works as well, but had to be a full-time dad because we have other kids and responsibilities at home.”

The other kids at home—Kingsley’s siblings—are 16, 15, and 7.

✨ I know all of you that love Hayleigh will love Kingsley the same way. Lift him in prayer & share this for others to do the same! ✨
