Help Gwen In Her Battle Against Cancer
Make a donation.
Gwen and her family need your help now more than ever. 5 year old Gwen was recently diagnosed with a DIPG tumor, a rare cancer at the base of the brain stem. She is currently at Children’s hospital and has undergone surgery to relieve symptoms of the tumor. She has lots of medical expenses piling up, including clinical trials to fight this cancer. Her mother, Christan, is also currently pregnant. This money will go towards medical expenses for Gwen, as well as the financial burden of travel, time off work, food, and other expenses for the family as they help Gwen through this tough time.

We also created an Amazon wish list for some things we need for Gwen, our 5 year old Princess who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated; you don’t have to buy the quantities that are on the list. We are turning a room into hers and we need bedding for her parents. Lots of cleaning supplies since she has a PICC line. We need to have extra blankets and sheets in case of accidents. Pull-ups and wipes as well as her needs change. I have added a few things to help decorate her room too. We need a monitor to be able to keep an eye on her because she is unstable so we need to be around if she wakes up or tries to get up. If you think of anything else you think we might need I haven’t listed please feel free to send it to us. Thank you. If you can’t help, please share.
About Gwen
Shortly after her 5th birthday, Gwen started having difficulty with her coordination. After visiting her doctor in Tyler, she was told to travel to Dallas for further testing. After a long and difficult full day at the hospital, they found a mass in her brain. Unfortunately, the mass was determined to be a DIPG tumor, a rare cancer at the base of the brain stem. This website has been created in order to raise awareness, gather donations for Gwen’s medical expenses, and for loved ones to follow Gwen’s journey and leave encouraging words.

Hi friends, Gwen received a Koala bear she named Honey with a baby Koala she named Baby Bellamy. 😅 It came from Australia and she is so happy about it. Then she tried on her unicorn headband. She’s said I’m a really cute unicorn. 💕 She told me she was going to miss me today when I left. I told her I would come back this weekend and see her, and she said we would play together in the morning. She knows just how to get to my heart. Please keep praying for our Perfect Princess Gwen our Little Bean! 💕💕💕

Y’all I have been waiting to share these with y’all. Bellamy Alfredo Medina was born at 8:45pm on 4/30/24— he was 6lbs 6oz. Gwen met him on May 1st. She was so excited. She tried to teach him how to stick his tongue out. She said hey Bellamy (Belmeee is how she says it) do this! 😂 It was beautiful watching her meet him. Christan did the most amazing job bringing Bellamy into this world; I couldn’t be more proud of her. He decided to come 3 weeks early and he was quite a surprise, but she handled the whole thing like a pro. I was blessed that God’s plan just happen to have me there that day instead of 3 hours away at home. God works in mysterious ways. Please keep praying for our Perfect Princess Gwen our Little Bean!! 💕💕💕 She is a big sister now.

I got to see a beautiful princess today. She was happy to see me and was very busy. She was playing with bees 🐝. She loved her aprons and couldn’t wait to start cooking. She dove right into her chocolate bunny. She gave me a beautiful picture of flowers she painted. When I left she was cooking with her Gimmie and Grandpa. She was doing such a great job. Please keep praying for for our Perfect Princess our Little Bean! 💕💕💕

Here is the Champion of OT! I heard there were some tears. But she did some crawling and some assisted steps! So she is the WINNER in my book! Tears are okay especially when you’re working so hard. I shed a few everyday for her. She’s my hero and so much stronger than I could ever be. Please keep praying for our Perfect Princess Gwen our Little Bean! 💕💕💕

I recently found the ABSOLUTE MOST PERFECT little picture here on FB Marketplace. Never ever did I imagine I could find an item that was made by someone unknown that could affect my life and mean more to me than you can imagine. This picture sums up the very heart and soul of my sweet Gwendolyn without even saying her name on the picture. We’re searching the house for the PERFECT place to hang it. I cherish this random find ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Prayers are still appreciated and needed 💛💛💛
