On September 19, 2015- the Clemence Family, of Chatham, were the recipients of a new 2015 Toyota Sienna van- delivered by Green Toyota- along with a $1,000 check, a new car seat, toy cars for both kids, and other items for the family!  The van was donated by chivecharities.org.

Lizzy (6) and Mason (4) Clements have a rare genetic disorder called Ligase IV Deficiency.  Ligase IV affects the immune system and both children have undergone bone marrow transplants.  Ligase IV is a very complex disorder- there have only been 16 cases worldwide.

While Lizzy has responded well to treatment, Mason has had many complications post-transplant.  The family travels frequently to Cincinnati Children's Hospital for doctors appointments.

Even with medical insurance through Jeff Clemence's workplace, the family has acquired a massive amount of medical debt.  Not counting what they will acquire in the future.
