Te Awamutu, Waikato
14 year old Tyson has been on cancer treatment for the last 4 and a half years.
Originally diagnosed with (ALL) Leukemia on the 9th of March 2020 and hitting remission in July of 2020 only to relapse 3 months away from End of treatment in April of 2022 with something docs couldn’t give a prognosis for because they had never seen this type of cancer before.
The family were told it was pretty grim.
Tyson persevered and despite what the docs thought he went into remission again!
Tyson was well on his way to the End of treatment in June 2024 with 8 weeks to go when the family were given another blow.
Relapse. Again.
This time Tyson has Myelodisplastic Syndromes and Acute Myeloid Luekemia.
He restarted treatment on the 18th of june and will need a bone marrow transplant.
This may be their last chance available in NZ.
The Hollran family will be in the Ronald Mcdonald House until Tyson has had his transplant and is ready to go back home which could be months.
