Michael Kukla hasn't added a story.
Alyssa was diagnosed with Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Cancer at the start of 2014. She has undergone one extensive surgery already to remove her thyroid gland, two parathyroid glands, and over 55 lymph nodes from her left and central neck. She is preparing for a second surgery to remove two more suspicious lymph nodes, one on each side of her neck. She is also preparing for future plans to finish her treatment out of state. We want to ensure during this ongoing process that her quality of life is as normal as possible. With the future being unknown, we would like finances to be in the back of our minds while we take care of our daughter. She has been SO strong during this time. We really just want people to know Alyssa's story and how amazing she has been. We would just really appreciate any donations and all support. After Alyssa wins her battle with cancer, we hope to start a foundation in Alyssa's name to help other families that are also in our unique situation.
Thank you,
Alyssa, Teresa, and Michael Kukla
