Keaton Kiddos – Lily

lilyLily Age 3 Diagnosis:

Lily was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2012 and KRM has provided ongoing financial assistance for their family through the family navigator program utilizing various services such as socialization events adopt a family, and the family was one of the many who participated in Keaton Raphael Memorial’s Thanksgiving turkey distribution supported by AAA in 2012.

Mother, Roselia, speaks about the impact KRM had on their Thanksgiving last year in turning it from a non-existent holiday into a feast of joy, “Keaton Raphael Memorial has been such a blessing in our lives; they have been there to help us in whatever we may need. This year because of our financial constraints we were not going to do Thanksgiving but as soon as I had told my children that this year it was going to be a little different we get a call from KRM with the wonderful news that they had a turkey for us. They are always thinking of my children and I and we are extremely grateful to have them in our lives and also the donors and supporters of KRM.”
