Caylee is a 7-year-old with a great sense of humor. When she’s not making people laugh, she loves expressing her creativity through arts and crafts. Caylee is a very caring kid, especially when it comes to her little brother, Andrew.
When Andrew was first diagnosed with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia, he had to stay in the hospital for 30 days. Caylee stayed with her grandparents during that time, and although she missed her family a lot, she did everything she could to help them out. Although it’s been a hard journey on the whole family, today, Andrew is in remission.
