Supporting the Mattila Family

Jenna was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Cancer. She was experiencing swollen lymph nodes and went to get them evaluated. After concerning results from the CT scan, Jenna was sent to be induced to have her baby at 38 weeks. On October 31, she delivered her 6th baby, Marcus Darwin. She then had a biopsy done which confirmed the cancer. Any amount is greatly appreciated! We are keeping Jenna, Travis and their family in our thoughts and prayers!!

Update #1

January 15th, 2025

In the beginning of December Jenna met with a naturopathic doctor in the Twin Cities. After their visit, her body negatively reacted so she chose to find an I.V. infusion clinic that would take her the soonest. She found a clinic in Tempe, Arizona that would be able to see her as soon as December 23rd. She quickly packed her bags and headed down south with her baby, Marcus. It was hard for her to leave so close to Christmas knowing she won’t be able to be spend it with her husband, Travis and 5 kids. 

On Christmas Eve Jenna ended up in the ER because she was having trouble breathing and swallowing. They did a CT scan of her chest and found another tumor. The tumor in her chest was causing fluid to pool up into her plural cavity (around her lungs). She spent the night at the hospital so they could drain over 1 liter of fluid.

Jenna’s team in Arizona suggested getting surgery to remove the tumor in her neck and chest so the I.V. treatments can be more effective at treating her cancer. 

Her sister-in-law reached out to her own surgeon that performed surgery during her cancer journey and he was willing to meet with her the next week. Jenna flew back up to MSP and met with the surgeon Monday, December 30th. He was happy to help her and said he’ll reach out to her doctor in Arizona to then make a plan and schedule the surgery. 

He told her the tumor in her neck is wrapping around her jugular vein so he’s nervous to get too close. With that being said, he won’t be able to remove 100 % of the tumor but he’s hopeful he can get most of it out. She’s continuing the I.V. therapy in Arizona about 3 days a week. Surgery is scheduled for Monday, January 27th.

Travis and Jenna have felt so much love and support during this time and want to thank everyone. Please continue to keep them in your prayers as they still have a long road ahead.
