Bravery, Bunk Beds & Big Dreams: Vicky’s Healing Hideaway

Because every child fighting cancer deserves a space that heals.

Meet Vicky

Vicky is a vibrant, kind-hearted 11-year-old who has already shown more courage than most of us will in a lifetime.

She was first diagnosed with neuroblastoma at just 7 years old in March 2022. What followed was an intense and exhausting journey — chemotherapy, radiation, major surgery, stem cell collection and transplant — and eventually, remission.

But just 10 months later, her cancer returned. This time, more aggressive.

Since her relapse, Vicky has endured monthly chemotherapy hospital stays lasting four to five days at a time. Treatment options have been limited, yet her determination has never wavered. Even on the hardest days — when getting out of bed feels impossible — her spirit shines.

She is resilient.
She is hopeful.
She is incredibly brave.

Her Dream

Vicky shares her bedroom with her mom and two siblings — Jeremy (9) and Leslie (18). More than anything, she dreamed of a space where they could all feel more at home. A space with more room to rest. More comfort. More peace.

She imagined:

🛏️ Bunk beds with privacy curtains for cozy, personal hideaways
💡 Colorful LED lights to brighten even the hardest days
💙 A blend of blue, purple, and pink — her favorite colors
🎮 A comfy space to play Roblox and unwind
🎨 A creative corner for painting and coloring
🎶 A vibe that matches her love of Reggaeton
🐱 And room for her beloved cat, Milo, who brings her endless joy

And one day, when she grows up, Vicky hopes to become a nurse — inspired by the very people who care for her now.

Designed for Healing

To bring Vicky’s vision to life, Moniker Design led the interior transformation, creating a space layered with warmth, color, and intention. With build support from Moniker Build, the room was thoughtfully reimagined to maximize both comfort and functionality for the entire family.

The custom bunk beds offer both privacy and togetherness — giving each family member a sense of personal space while staying close. Soft lighting and vibrant hues fill the room with energy and joy. Every detail reflects Vicky’s playful creativity and courageous heart.

This life-changing transformation was made possible through the generous co-sponsorship of ClickUp, whose support helped turn Vicky’s dream into reality. Because of partners like ClickUp, families walking through unimaginable challenges can experience moments of relief, beauty, and hope inside their own homes.

This wasn’t just about adding furniture.
It was about creating breathing room.
It was about restoring dignity.
It was about giving a family a place to exhale.

More Than a Makeover

When Vicky walked into her newly transformed bedroom, it wasn’t just a reveal.

It was a reminder that she is supported.
That she is seen.
That she is surrounded by love.

Her healing hideaway is now a place to rest after long hospital stays, to laugh with her siblings, to paint and play music, to cuddle Milo, and to dream about the day she becomes a nurse.

Because childhood should be filled with color, music, creativity, and hope — not hospital rooms.

And thanks to the generosity of Moniker Design, Moniker Build, and ClickUp, Vicky now has a sanctuary that reflects her bravery, her resilience, and her big dreams.
