Our Story

Claire, Ben, Harper, and Emmett Heindel

Home: Wausau, Wisconsin Hospital: Children's Wisconsin, Milwaukee Oncology Unit: MACC Fund Center

April 27, 2023 - Emmett was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Emmett's diagnosis kicked off a 2.5 year journey for our entire family with deep low's and exhilarating high's. Emmett will finish treatment in July of 2025.

This experience changed the course of our lives, and we have experienced and learned a ton. We are now ready to give back to an incredible greater Central Wisconsin Community that has poured so much love, prayer, and positivity into our journey.

We have learned a ton, and we are now ready to give back to the Central Wisconsin Community

"Your Son has Leukemia" was just the start. What followed included: surgeries, ambulance rides, medical procedures at home, Emergency Room visits, missed birthdays and holidays, an ICU stay, dealing with insurance, hosting events, and a whole host of other things no parent should ever have to deal with. We want to give this knowledge back!
