My Story

Jackson is a happy 5 year old boy who was recently diagnosed with ALL on March 22, 2017 after a week and a half of a high fever and leg pain. Jackson is in Kindergarten, loves going to the zoo, is playing his second year of tball and loves to play with Legos, Transformer Rescuebots, Batman and reading. He has sparked an interest in art and enjoys coloring, drawing, painting and doing anything creative. Jackson also has an 18 month old sister that he can't get enough of. Even though we are still adjusting to this whirlwind, we are taking things day by day and trying to keep life as normal as possible. We know that we have a tough road ahead of us but we are trying to keep as positive as possible and have faith that we will get through this tough time.
