CHoR’s May Calendar Kid: Maddie
The Pierson family had a celebration in March 2024. It wasn’t a big birthday bash, but the 1-year anniversary of 4-year-old Maddie’s bone marrow transplant – one of the methods used to knock out her uncommon and complex leukemia.
“Maddie was diagnosed with a rare and challenging form of leukemia that required a specialized approach to treatment,” explained Dr. Beth Krieger from Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU.
