Leslie Howerton hasn't added a story.
On October 21st, after a visit to the emergency room, Winnie was diagnosed with T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-Cell ALL.) When admitted her white blood count was 100x normal and she had to be sedated and put on a ventilator. Winnie spent seven days in the PICU and two weeks in the Hem/Oc Ward at Doernbecher Children's Hospital in Portland, OR. She is currently receiving outpatient chemotherapy treatments and will need a bone marrow transplant. She will receive chemotherapy and radiation treatments for up to 2 years. Winnie is a very strong little girl who has been fighting her diagnosis with resilience and courage.
Mom's (Leslie) awesome co-workers at Nike WHQ made t-shirts for Winnie and the family that united the two things that Winnie loves the most, unicorns and tacos (see picture above.) To cheer Winnie up and show their support while she was in the hospital. These shirts were quite the hit with Winnie and we wanted to make them available to our family and friends. Winnie has loved seeing us wear them and I am sure seeing more people in them will make her extremely happy. :)
How this works:
1. Each shirt is $28 please use this platform to pay. The shirts are high quality black t-shirts with an awesome multi-color print.
2. Please leave your name and the size that you need in the comments section. The sizes available will be unisex XS-XXL and youth S-L.
3. The t-shirts will be available for pickup at CrossFit Kiowa or our house in Independence, OR. We can also arrange in-person delivery in the Salem/Keizer/Corvallis area.
4. If you need the shirts shipped to you please email Leslie, lehowerton@gmail.com with your address and we will arrange shipping.
All funds raised after the purchase of the t-shirts will be used for Winnie's hospital bills and care.
Special thanks to Shane Rider at CrossFit Kiowa for helping us get these awesome t-shirts made and to the amazing team at Nike for designing the original artwork.
We have been overwhelmed with the love and support Winnie has received from our family, friends, and community since her diagnosis. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. With your help we are #winniestrong
