My Story

Thank you for supporting me and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. By sharing the gifts of your time, talent and money with the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure. I was diagnosed with infantile fibrosarcoma after my parents discovered a small lump. After several MRI’s and tests we received my diagnosis weighing out treatment options. The evening my parents were packing bags to head for surgery to have a chemo port installed, we received a call asking us to consider a new oral medication treatment option. After 10 months of taking the medication my tumor is completely gone. Because of foundations like St. Baldricks and extensive children’s cancer research I was able to receive treatment at home with no side effects and live like a normal baby.
