My Story

I'm 15 and in 10th grade.  I was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a cancerous bone tumor found in my left shin, just before Thanksgiving of 2018.  I have always been athletic and active and this diagnosis has literally taken me off of my feet.  My only wish is to be able to ski and play softball again, but I'm not likely to do either of those until 2021--my senior year of high school!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.
