Standing Together for Julien: Supporting the De Leon Family ❤️
No parent should ever have to hear the words that their child has a brain tumor. No child should ever have to face a battle like this, especially at just three years old.
Our sweet Julien, a loving, precious, and brave little boy, is facing a journey that no child or family should ever have to endure. In what feels like the blink of an eye, Cindy and Tony’s world has been turned upside down, and their family is now navigating unimaginable fear, uncertainty, and heartbreak.
Next week, Julien will begin six weeks of radiation treatment, an incredibly difficult step in his fight. At the same time, the family is anxiously awaiting the final results of his biopsy, which will help his medical team determine the next steps and any additional treatments he may need. There are still so many unanswered questions, and the road ahead remains uncertain. But through it all, we are holding on to faith, hope, and the belief that miracles are possible.
As Cindy and Tony pour every ounce of their love, strength, and energy into caring for Julien, we want to make sure they never feel they have to carry this burden alone. We are also keeping Julien’s sweet sister, Melody, close to our hearts, ensuring she is surrounded by the same love, comfort, and support as her family navigates this incredibly difficult chapter.
This page has been created to rally around the De Leon family and help lift some of the weight from their shoulders. The days, weeks, and months ahead will bring emotional, physical, and financial challenges that no family can fully prepare for. Between medical expenses, ongoing treatments, everyday necessities, and the unexpected needs that arise along the way, our hope is to provide Cindy and Tony with one less thing to worry about so they can focus on what matters most: being there for Julien and Melody.
Through this page, we will be raising funds to support the family’s medical and day-to-day expenses, while also coordinating practical help, essential items, and other needs as they arise. As we learn more about Julien’s treatment journey, we will continue to share updates and adjust wish lists so that everyone who wishes to help can do so in the most meaningful way.
To everyone who has prayed, reached out, offered a helping hand, or simply kept this beautiful family in your thoughts, please know how deeply your kindness is felt. Every donation, every prayer, every loving message, and every small gesture of support means more than words could ever express.
Julien is only three years old. He should be spending his days playing, laughing, making memories, and discovering the world around him. Instead, he is preparing to face something far bigger than any little boy should ever have to. And while we cannot take this battle away from him, we can make sure that he and his family are surrounded by an army of love every step of the way.
We know the road ahead may be long, and there may be difficult days, but we also know the power of a community coming together. We will hold on to hope when things feel uncertain, celebrate every little victory, find strength in one another, and never stop believing in brighter days ahead.
Please keep Julien, Cindy, Tony, and Melody in your hearts and prayers. If you are able to donate, share this page, or offer support in any way, you will be helping a family who needs their village now more than ever.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with the De Leon family.
Together, we fight for Julien. Together, we hope. Together, we believe in miracles. 💙
