Meet Baylie, your Family Support Resource:
My son battled DIPG for 15 months before he earned his angel wings on July 4, 2025. Walking through childhood cancer changed every part of who I am. I know firsthand the fear, heartbreak, uncertainty, and overwhelming flood of information — and sometimes the devastating lack of answers — that comes with hearing a diagnosis like DIPG.
When our family began this journey, we were desperate for hope, guidance, and connection with people who truly understood what we were facing. Now, because of everything we lived through with my son, I want to be that source of support for other families entering this fight.
I want families to know they are not alone. I want to help provide resources, share hope, and walk alongside parents who are facing the unimaginable. No family should ever be told to simply “go home and make memories” as though there is nothing left worth fighting for.
My son’s life and legacy continue to drive me forward. In his honor, I’ve made it my mission to make sure families facing DIPG know there is still reason to fight, there are people standing beside them, and above all else — there is HOPE.
Join and collaborate with hundreds of other DIPG families who understand what you are going through. We are here for you. Family never fights alone!
