Why We Need Your Help

We want Myla to take as many horse lessons and trail rides as she can before she is no longer able to ride. This page helps to raise funds specifically for her horse lessons.

For Myla’s family, the financial burden is staggering. Medical bills for specialized treatments, travel expenses, temporary housing near treatment centers, and loss of income are just some of the costs the family faces. Insurance often does not cover experimental therapies or out-of-state care.

If you’d like to donate to cover Myla’s medical bills, travel expenses, and other services, please donate to her GiveSendGo page: https://www.givesendgo.com/MYLAK?utm_source=sharelink&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=MYLAK

The Diagnosis

Several months ago, what was thought to be headaches and crossed eyes escalated into a series of medical tests and consultations. After a whirlwind of hospital visits, scans, and evaluations, her family received the devastating diagnosis: a rare pediatric brain tumor. This type of tumor is not only uncommon, but it also presents unique challenges to treatment, requiring highly specialized care and therapies that are often not readily available close to home.

Myla's Story

From the moment Myla entered the world, this little girl radiated joy. Her laughter fills rooms, her curiosity leads her on adventures, and her kindness leaves an imprint on everyone she meets. She loves horses, making funny content and silly videos while rollerblading, crafts (making bracelets), jumping on the trampoline and playing with her new puppy!

Now, she faces days filled not with playground games and art projects, but with doctor’s appointments, treatments, and long hospital stays. Yet even in the midst of uncertainty and fear, her spark remains. Her bravery is a daily reminder that hope can flourish even in the darkest moments.

The Flock Family’s Journey

The diagnosis changed everything in an instant. Her parents have become her fiercest advocates, navigating complex medical systems and exploring every possible treatment avenue. The journey has brought unexpected challenges: travel for specialized care, time off work to be by her side, and mounting medical expenses. The emotional and financial toll is tremendous, yet their love and dedication never waver. Her brother, too, has rallied around her, offering hugs, stories, and comfort. The family’s resilience is remarkable, but, as they have discovered, even the strongest need a helping hand.

The Medical Challenge

Treating rare pediatric brain tumors requires a multidisciplinary team of oncologists, neurosurgeons, and pediatric specialists. Many of these are only available at select hospitals, meaning travel and extended stays far from home.

The treatment itself is daunting—not only physically, but emotionally. Side effects, uncertainty about what lies ahead, and the need for constant monitoring are part of the daily reality. Despite these obstacles, the family is committed to pursuing every possible option to give their daughter the best chance of recovery.
