A Tribute in Honour of
Bo Kindree
To honour Bo, we are donating to the BCCH Foundation to support childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) research, a hugely underfunded area of research. Donations received to this page will be earmarked specifically for AML.
Childhood cancer forced us into an immensely difficult and complicated journey. We have been supported by BC Children’s Hospital and the work of the BCCH Foundation along the way. Now we would like to be able to further their research towards finding better treatments and cures for childhood acute myeloid leukemia.
Bo was 11 months old when he was initially diagnosed with AML on Oct.7, 2017. He underwent 4 rounds of incredibly intense chemotherapy living in BCCH for 5 months, which is where he learned to walk and showed incredible strength and courage. On June 15th, 2018, he relapsed and underwent another 3 rounds of intensive chemotherapy before he was given a cord blood transplant on September 6, 2018 to hopefully be what his body needed to ensure the cancer would never come back. The transplant was incredibly difficult on Bo and he showed an unbelievable level of resiliency. After another 7 months living in isolation at BCCH and at Ronald McDonald House, we made it home just in time for Christmas. We knew his prognosis was not as hopeful this time, but we also knew of AML survivors and were always hopeful. On Feb.6, 2019, Bo relapsed again and the doctors felt that radiation treatment would work or at least buy us 1-2 more years with Bo before another relapse. Again, we went home hopeful and waited for Bo to recover. On April 25, 2019, Bo relapsed again and the doctors broke the impossible news to us that he was now palliative. Bo passed away peacefully in his Mama’s arms alongside his Dada at BCCH on November 21st, 2019. His mind and spirit put up a remarkable fight to give us every extra minute with him that his body would allow. We will miss him every day, and will always be inspired by his strength and bright light.
Thank you for donating to BC Children’s Hospital Foundation in honour of Bo, we sincerely appreciate your support.
