My Story

We are so happy to say that  Jaxon finished his treatment on June 20, 2014 and is now 8 years cancer free.  Jaxon was diagnosed with (ALL) pre-B, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on February 28, 2011, just 3 months short of his 4th birthday.  Throughout his 3 years & 4 months of chemotherapy treatment, Jaxon endured numerous hospital stays, clinic visits, lumbar punctures, pokes, x-rays and scans.  Through it all Jaxon remained strong-willed and determined to win his battle against this hateful disease.  Today, Jaxon attends the 9th grade at Patapsco High School and Center for the Arts where he plays the violin in the schools orchestra magnet program. Jaxon works hard to remain an honor roll student and has recently accepted a seat in the 2022 all-county orchestra. Jaxon enjoys competitive sailing, playing lacrosse and hanging with his friends. Jaxon is a survivor!
