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. My hope had been to become a doctor and find out why kids like me get cancer. Before I had a chance to do that I went to dance in heaven where my body is finally free from pain. Remember me as an author of a graphic novel and a lover of sweets! Have a bowl of ice cream to honor me and please help this amazing cause. My mom and sister both shaved their heads in March of 2013 and I am so proud of them.
