Beautiful and spunky Ginny was referred to home hospice with an estimated 30 days left to live. Because her parents are divorced and both remarried, she was going to have to choose between her parents’ homes to live out her final days.

Because of her determined and creative social worker’s hard work, Jane’s Fund seized the opportunity to pay for a beautiful airbnb on the lake, big enough for each family to have their own space and for Ginny’s last days to be peaceful and full of love.

Ginny marched to heaven just 10 days later, surrounded by her parents, siblings and family dogs.

10-year-old Taylor was diagnosed with stage IV Neuroblastoma (cancer beginning in the nerve cells) in September 2023, after several months of misdiagnosis for her rib/abdominal pain. She has bravely faced paralysis, emergency surgery, chemotherapy, a stem cell transplant, radiation and immunotherapy as she battles the disease.

Even with all of this, the five-year survival rate for her particular cancer is a less than 50%. The family of four travels 160 miles one-way every three weeks for Taylor’s treatment and yet were considering selling a car to help with finances for her treatment.
