Overview

  • Eight-month-old Luka, Randi Mahomes’ cousin’s grandson, was diagnosed with Stage L2 intermediate neuroblastoma after breathing difficulties led to a life flight to Dallas Children’s Hospital.
  • Doctors discovered a large tumor collapsing his left lung, necessitating chest tube surgery and five days in the ICU before transferring him to the oncology unit.
  • He completed his first round of chemotherapy as part of an aggressive treatment regimen to shrink the tumor.
  • Mahomes, who lost her father in February and her mother in 2023, created a GoFundMe page to help cover Luka’s mounting medical expenses.
  • The Mahomes family has urged supporters and fans to send prayers and donations to aid Luka’s fight against the rare pediatric cancer.
