We started Jordyn's Joy to bring Joy to our hearts when we found out Jordyn had a rare disease: Children's Interstitial and Diffuse Lung Disease (chILD). We never thought that this would take Jordyns life, She had overcome so many obstacles and nothing ever stopped her. Unfortunately, this was something that her Super Hero powers could not beat.

We watched her go from a sassy, funny, outgoing, one of a kind kid, to being a kid in and out of the hospital having to have a lot of testing, lung biopsies, and treatments that we hoped would work, yet ended up on oxygen full time. She no longer got to be a kid. Jordyn fought as hard as she could, but this was too hard and it took her life within 10 months. The reason we tell you this is because you have no idea what sick kids go through day in and day out. Even the smallest gesture makes all the difference in the world.

October is a special month to us because October 6th was Jordyn's birthday.Through the sadness of this day, we have decided to create Jordyn's Joy as a non-profit organization to honor her and to help others. Being able to bring kiddos something special truly warms our hearts and helps keep Jordyn's memory alive!
