Cayde McNelly Benefit

When Cayde was born, he spent his first few days in the NICU, and during that time, doctors discovered a hole in his heart(VSD – Ventricular Septal Defect). Cayde struggled to gain weight and as he grew, the defect became more complex. At just five months old, Cayde underwent open heart surgery.

Following the heart surgery, Cayde battled several illnesses and ear infections that required multiple hospital stays. He also contracted both CMV & EBV(common viruses) that led to even more health complications, including suppressing his bone marrow function.

Cayde eventually ended up at American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison for extensive testing and that’s when doctors diagnosed him with HLH, a rare & life-threatening condition where the body’s immune system attacks it’s own organs.

There will be a benefit for Cayde McNelly and his family on Saturday, August 30th at the Cashton Community Hall starting at 11am.
