Auckland

On Thursday 8 February 2024, Quinn was admitted to Starship Hospital where she was diagnosed with high risk acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Brynn, Jimmy and Quinn have had their world turned upside down and are navigating this news the best they can knowing they have a long fight ahead to recovery for their little girl.

Quinn will undergo chemotherapy and surgeries for the foreseeable future and will be in and out of Starship Hospital for treatment, monitoring and stabilisation of this cancer.

This page has been set up in the hopes of relieving the financial pressure Brynn and Jimmy will face due to long periods of leave from work while they care for Quinn full time.

On behalf of the Armstrong and Curran Whanau, we greatly appreciate any support you are able to offer in helping little Quinn fight this battle

Use of funds

The funds will be paid directly into Brynn and Jimmy’s account and be spent on the families regular bills, expenses and provide all that Quinn requires throughout this journey whilst allowing them to care for her without financial worry.

9 months in   26 November 2024

Posted by: Brynn Armstrong

Hey everyone, a little update on our wee girl.

Quinn has had a really challenging past few months as we now reach 9 months into this journey.

In October, Quinn got to take her first ambulance ride after spiking a fever of 40.4°c and ending up in Paediatric Intensive Care with Sepsis. We were extremely fortunate that she bounced back after 10 days in Starship.

We are currently at back at Starship having been rushed to ED 13 days ago with fevers. She is currently stable but her blood counts are so low that we are in protective isolation as she has no ability to fight any infection or virus she may pick up. It's an incredibly hard time with both Mum and Dad having to stay at hospital and be off work to ensure she's cared for while here at hospital.

In between hospital stays she's been receiving her standard Chemotherapy and all of the challenges that come with it. Her hair fallen out again and she has been wiped by all the medication with lots of nausea, pain and skin rashes. Yet, as always, she has taken it all in her stride and shows us how incredibly resilient and inspiring she can be. Her smile and personality has never wavered and we couldn't be more proud of her!!

As always we are eternally grateful for the way our people have held our whānau. Without you we would not be where we are. Love you 🩷
