2025 Ambassador Sage: An Avid Gamer with Incredible Resilience

We're helping to raise money for childhood cancer research

In many ways, 7-year-old Sage is a typical first grader who loves superheroes, sports, especially soccer, wrestling, and football (go Iowa Hawkeyes!), hunting, bike riding, playing with cars, and perfecting his newest talent, whistling. 


At first, it seemed like Sage, then 4-years-old, was fighting a virus. But after a week of increasing leg pain, back pain, and a rash on the trunk of his body, his parents took him back to the doctor. On January 31, 2022, Sage was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), type B. Treatment started right away. The goal of the first four weeks of chemo was to get his leukemia into remission – and it worked. 


Because researchers know that cancer cells are determined to come back, the next stage of treatment was even more intense, to knock out any cancer cells still lurking in his little body. Sage was in and out of the hospital during these months of grueling treatment, missing school, and fighting one virus after another due to his weakened immune system. 


Currently, Sage visits the clinic once a month until May 2025, when he will ring the bell signaling the end of treatment. He will then continue to be seen in the clinic for follow up labs, and monitoring of side effects from his treatment for several years to come.
