Five year old Samantha Donovan is in the fight for her life as she battles a rare form of Leukemia for the second time. In her first few days after being diagnosed with cancer, Sam named her support team “Team Super Everybody” telling her parents that they will get through this together. Sam has undergone multiple rounds of chemo therapy, radiation treatment and most recently a bone marrow transplant. Sam and her parents have been staying at BC Children’s Hospital and Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver for the majority of the past 18 months. During this time, Sam’s parents have been unable to work and have lost extended medical benefits and the ability to pay critical medical and housing bills. By purchasing a bracelet, which you can get in the studio for $5, you help support the family physically, emotionally and financially! Thank you for your support, Team Super Everybody!
