Arianne Grunewald hasn't added a story.
My name is Arianne and I have worked at the Monterey Peninsula Pediatric Medical Group in Monterey, California for almost four years with Dhanyal, Angel's mom. Let me introduce you to 3-year-old Angel. He is a sweet, adorable, charismatic little boy whose entire world has come crashing down on him. In September of 2016, Angel was diagnosed with AML leukemia, the worst form of childhood leukemia. He was immediately rushed to UCSF children's hospital to start treatment. He has gone through a complete wipeout of his immune system, months of chemotherapy and most recently a bone marrow transplant using stem cells. His mom, Dhanyal, has been by him this entire time. She refuses to leave his side and has been a pillar of strength for the family. She has been unable to work leaving her husband as the sole provider for the family, which also includes Angel's big brother Sean and big sister, Kaylee. This family is going through something that no family or child should ever have to endure. Following the recent transplant, Angel has unfortunately been suffering severe side effects, which have now placed him under sedation on a ventilator.
With all of this going on, the world outside the hospital keeps moving on. Angel’s Dad still has to work as much as he can while bills keep arriving and piling up for the family. This family is crippled by the fear that they will lose their precious little boy. They should not have to worry about which bills they can afford to pay this week, or month.
All money collected will be used to alleviate the financial burden placed on this family. We ask you to please help this family have a silver lining by donating funds toward their bills so they can focus on their little boy and other children. Dhanyal has spent years working at a pediatric office, helping other children and their families. It is time for us to help her and her little warrior, Angel. (Please, check out our Facebook page, MPPMG, for any updates on Angel.)
