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. Javier was a special kid... When he was getting his chemo at DHR he would knock on other patients door and help their stay a little easier by playing or talking to them... He was an amazing strong kid he would always have a smile and loved music dancing playing Xbox with his brother Gus.  While traveling to Dallas to receive the VIGIL Clinical trial at Medical City Hospital he would meet no strangers he would start talking to other passengers in the Southwest airlines like they were long life friends that's the way Javi was very friendly, kind sweet young man We miss him so much
