2023

 On December 27th, 2022, 3-year-old Jordan Hampton was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. After a week of on and off fevers at home, Jordan was brought to the emergency room to get some answers, Jordan's blood counts were very concerning and they were urgently admitted to Children's Masonic Hospital on Christmas Day where Jordan received two blood transfusions, and many tests and procedures were performed in order to figure out what was causing these fevers. Two days later they received the diagnosis and spent the next 8 days in the hospital trying to regain blood counts and start chemotherapy. They are managing this new life and couldn't do it without the love and support from those around them. Jordan is 5 months into his chemotherapy treatment, and it is projected that he has another 2 years of treatments to go. 

Mom(Kristine), Dad(Dan), Jordan and his 7-year-old sister(Brooklyn) Live in Elk River, MN. Dan is an Elk River Firefighter and mom had an In-Home daycare, but has since closed her doors in order to care for Jordan during this cancer journey. As a family they enjoy being outdoors and spending time at the family cabin.
