Jacob is 17 and will be going to college next year when he graduates. He is such a smart kid. He has taken all AP and IB classes. Cancer never slowed him down for too long. He aspires to be an Anesthesiologist. He loves life! He is a little shy at first but warms up quickly. He is such an amazing kid and I’m so proud of him.

Jacob was diagnosed with T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on August 17th, 2016. Prior to being diagnosed, he was tired, had knee pain, and was vomiting.

He’s been through a lot! So many types of chemotherapies and 39 lumbar punctures. He lost his hair and his strength….but he is a fighter and is almost back to normal.

Cancer has changed so many things – his diagnosis has made us all more thankful for every little wonderful thing!

Jacob maintained all A’s and played baseball throughout his treatment. He doesn’t play baseball anymore because he’s so focused on his grades and school. He is a survivor and has accomplished so much!
