2026 Big Apple truck show -All proceeds to the mcneil family
Written by the McNeil family:
On August 2, 2025, the McNeil family received news that changed their life overnight—their daughter, Gretel, was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a rare and aggressive form of pediatric blood cancer.
Gretel opted for a treatment plan that includes a trial component (sponsored by St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital in conjunction with Dana Farber) in the hopes that it will not only lead to a good outcome for her, but will advance opportunities for future pediatric AML patients.
Outside of the current context, I don’t think anyone who knows Gretel would describe her as a ‘fighter’ - she is a ‘lover’ - outwardly kind and caring, with a heart of gold. But do not mistake her kindness for weakness. She loves her family and her friends and her life and in her gentle nature belies a TOUGHNESS that has been on full display since this ordeal began.
The path ahead is going to be incredibly challenging. AML requires immediate and intensive treatment, including rounds of chemotherapy, countless tests and blood transfusions, and potentially a bone marrow transplant. Gretel will be in-patient at Boston Children's Hospital for at least 6 months.
As you can imagine, the physical and emotional toll is overwhelming—but so too is the financial burden. Gretel being alone is not an option for their family. Holly is with Gretel at the hospital Monday through Friday and is unable to work. Pete is with Gretel Friday through Sunday and will potentially be taking FMLA and receiving only a percentage of his salary. Even with insurance, the costs of treatment - on top of missed income - are more than her family can shoulder alone.
