About Us

March 16, 2023, forever changed me as a person and a mom. When the ER doctor said, “We suspect your son has leukemia and you are being admitted to the PICU tonight,” those words stayed with me and will likely never fade. Most days, it still feels like a dream, and I hope to wake up to find none of this happened to my sweet boy. The cancer journey is ugly, hard, and dark, but there is light—in people and in hope. As parents, we are just trying to figure it all out, and Maxwell’s Toy Box has become a place where we can share our journey and give back. With the support of our amazing family, friends, and strangers, we've had two incredible toy drives and hope to continue that work. Thank you for following along and for all your support.
