From a Dragonfly Mom: “I was talking about Dragonfly today and someone told me how lucky we were to be part of Dragonfly and how they wish they could join. I had to explain that in order to be a Dragonfly, your kid had to have cancer so it would be lucky to NOT be eligible for Dragonfly. However, if …
“1) I am thankful for my family always being there for me. 2) I am thankful for our Dragonfly family for putting a smile on my daughter’s face for everything you do for us. 3) Thankful for having a job to support my family. As we all know how the mortgage market can be…”
From a Dragonfly Mom: Yesterday, I was leaving the hospital with N and I was having a lot of mixed emotions…happy that N was coming home, but also some worry of “what am I going to do”.

A note from a Dragonfly Mom: “My daughter, A, just started receiving treatment at Cincinnati Children’s for liver cancer. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the welcome bag (New Diagnosis/Extended Stay Care Package). It provided many things that we were in need of and was put to use right away. I also wanted to let …
From a Dragonfly Mom: “When N got diagnosed last year, I remember that I was so afraid he would die. I remember being on the phone with my friend and crying about all the things he had not done in life.
