A family friend of the Club, Jeanmichel Daniel’s beautiful 2 year old son Sebastien has been diagnosed with leukemia (AML M1) and has been through two chemotherapy treatment at the Children’s Hospital in Central California.
On April 22 the doctors let Shannon and Jeanmichel know that Sebastien’s DNA panel was positive for monosomy7 on the leukemia cell, not a good result. This means a high risk of the leukemia returning after treatment and it was time to go to plan B. Once Sebastien’s immune system had recovered more he would go home for a week beginning May 1. During this time he would make a visit to City of Hope in Los Angles to see the bone marrow specialist on May 6. After the week at home, Sebastien will be back at Children’s Hospital in Fresno for 2 more cycles of chemo.
For May and June the treatment includes 10 days of chemo, 20 days at the hospital, 10 more days of chemo, 20 days of rest and then transfer to city of Hope for bone marrow transplant scheduled on July 19th. Jeanmichel, Shannon, Julien and Sebastien will be in Los Angeles for at least 4 months starting in July. The good news is that Julien, Sebastien’s older brother is a match for the transplant. The family is in for the long run and spending the next 5 months or more at the hospital will prove to be a financial hardship.
Our dear friends, Shannon and Jeanmichel Daniel are two of the most beautiful and generous people you will meet. Not surprisingly, Shannon and Jeanmichel have two beautiful sons who are smart, curious and kind. Julien, the big brother is 4 and Sebastien is 2 years old and they are best friends. Shannon is a nurse and Jeanmichel is a massage therapist and swim teacher in Fresno. They are both very involved with their children and volunteer and volunteer when they can despite their very busy schedules.
