In June 2018, Gabrielle began to experience severe skin rashes. Over the next several months, bloodwork and skin biopsies provided little information as Gabrielle cycled through medicines to keep the rashes at bay. While home in New York for the winter holidays, she spiked a fever that led her to be hospitalized and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The Bone Marrow & Cancer Foundations housing program, Open homes, was able to ease the burden of finding temporary accommodations for her family and provide a home away from home when she needed it the most.

Make an instant difference in the life of a child or adult as they face the challenges of cancer treatment or a bone marrow, Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT), or cord blood transplant.
