HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - While many are avoiding travel during the pandemic, some families with children diagnosed with cancer don’t have a choice.
The Kawasaki family hops on a plane at least once a month for 10-year-old Paige’s leukemia treatment.
Paige was diagnosed in 2018 with acute lymphocytic leukemia, and her family needs to travel to Kapiolani Medical Center to receive treatment.
“She has Down syndrome, so she takes a lot of things in stride,” said Paige’s father, Jordan Kawasaki. “She’s really tough and she puts up with a lot.”
