💛 About Finley 💛 Finley is a radiant, joyful 4-year-old who is truly a blessing to everyone who knows her. She’s never met a stranger, gives the very best hugs, and loves all of her “friends” with her whole heart. Recently, Finley was diagnosed with Stage 3 Pleomorphic Xanthoastrocytoma (PXA), a rare form of brain cancer. Finley's parents, Maili and Dodge, are currently seeking additional opinions from specialists and hospitals across the country to determine the best path forward. Her mom, Maili, has taken a leave of absence from work to be by Finley’s side and focus entirely on her care. Many people have reached out asking how they can help — because they are SO, SO loved — and this page was created to make supporting them a little easier. Here, you can support Finley and Maili by: 💕 Donate a meal or send a gift card to help with daily needs 🎗️ Contribute to their GoFundMe 🌈 Gift an experience for Finley and Maili to enjoy together 💌 Leave a message or prayer for the family 🕊️ Follow along for updates on Finley’s journey Thank you for surrounding Maili, Dodge and Finley with love, hope, and support during this time. Any prayer, gift or message is greatly appreciated. In Finley's words: "Let's Do This!!"
