BALTIMORE — Some difficult news to share.

This summer, we told you about Jordan Reid-el, an 11-year-old girl from northwest Baltimore who was battling CMV, a viral infection that went undetected for months after her birth and left her with significant health challenges.

The community held a ‘Joy for Jordan Day’ to try to raise funds for an accessible home and vehicle. Sadly, that help didn’t come in time.
