Kellie will require many platelet transfusions during her treatment of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). All Team Kellie Members are encouraged to donate platelets under Kellie Miner-Durkit's name. The entire platelet donation is typically 2 to 3 hours in length.

Prior to the actual blood donation and not during the scheduling of the blood donation provide the United Blood Services Representative with the below information:

Donation Type:   Replenishment

Patient’s Name:  Kellie Miner-Durkit

Hospital Name:   Phoenix Children’s Hospital

Blood Replenishment Record Card Example

Kellie Miner Fund

Due to Kellie's condition she cannot receive the typical get well gifts such as flowers, stuff animals, or balloons. We have established the Kellie Miner Fund at Wells Fargo Bank. All donations will allow Kellie to enjoy her several days each month that she is released from the hospital. Such as trips to Castle & Coasters, Goofy Golf, Movies, Dinner Out instead of hospital food. To receive the account number please email her Dad jeff.agee@teamkellie.org
