Meet Jacob

Jacob is a happy, funny, little clown. He is always trying to make someone laugh. He loves his family, pirates, Spiderman, and his dog Rosie. He was an unusually healthy child, with no colds, flu, or ear aches. Then he started having strange symptoms and illnesses at two and a half years old. After finally having a bone marrow biopsy done, he was diagnosed with Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on September 11, 2003.

He has been so tough through it all. Jacob has endured numerous spinal taps with injections of drugs into his spinal fluid without having to be put to sleep; he took a handful of pills at one time; he has had many blood transfusions, random viral illnesses with weeks of hospital stays, and daily toxic painful chemotherapy—more than a three year old should ever have to endure. But he keeps in mind the ultimate goal—-growing up and living a long full life. He is doing so well and is in remission. He took his last chemo pill on November 13, 2006 and five years from now Jacob will be considered cured.
