My Story

Dominic Alexander was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma on February 17, 2017. His life changed forever. Dom traded baseball, swim team, and singing for biopsies, shots, and chemotherapy. He endured four grueling months of treatment and was very ill.

Fortunately, the chemotherapy, medications, and the Almighty Physician healed Dominic. He still has a long road ahead of him, as the side effects of treatment have impacted his life. Dom struggles with physical and emotional pain, but he is a fighter.

Dominic's family is thrilled to see him back in school, participating in Tae Kwon Do, playing piano and trumpet, and spending time with loved ones and friends. They ask that you pray for him to stay in remission forever. His next appointment will be in a few months.

Please support Dom and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. By donating to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure. They deserve it!
