Hope, Strength, and Healing for families coping with a child cancer diagnosis

Shyann ~ In Loving Memory

In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we remember Keaton Kiddo Shyann, a beautiful young warrior who fought a strenuous three year battle against Ewing’s Sarcoma, a cancer that affects bones and soft tissue. Shyann began her journey on May 24th, 2018. A bright young girl, she enjoyed movies, makeup, and clothes. From the start of her journey, Shyann was supported by her mom, dad, twin sister and younger siblings. She also found comfort in connecting with another Keaton kiddo who not only provided emotional support, but also formed an everlasting bond and friendship.

Keaton’s was fortunate enough to be a part of Shyann’s journey by sharing a family Hope Chest, meeting her family at our family events and supplying financial support as she endured treatment, in order to alleviate as much stress as possible. Surrounded by love, Shyann gained her angel wings on July 17th, 2021. Although words cannot express how deeply saddened we are, we celebrate Shyann’s life and legacy, honoring her journey.

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

September is National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Every 3 minutes, a family’s life is turned upside down when they hear the four devastating words, “Your child has cancer.” At Keaton’s Child Cancer Alliance, we believe that every child deserves a fighting chance – and you can help make that a reality. 

This month, we honor brave young warriors, remember our precious Angels, and stand with families fighting childhood cancer today. From fundraising events to volunteer opportunities, there’s a way for everyone to join this mission of hope.

Together, let’s Glow Gold and remind every family: you are not alone in this journey. This September, we shine a light of awareness, love, and unwavering support for every child and family facing childhood cancer.
