My Story

My name is Liam and I was diagnosed with brain cancer (a ependymoma) in October of 2023. My awesome surgeon Dr Al Cohen removed my tumor at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore and then I completed 33 rounds of proton at Sibley in DC and rang the bell in January 2024. Unfortunately in November of 2024 a new tumor grew back. Thankfully Dr Cohen was able to remove it again and I am now completing 6 cycles of chemo then will likely have other treatments after. 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.
