Thank you for visiting my LLS fundraising page!

I am honored to be supporting The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Student of the Year program which is a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. 

LLS is particularly​ important to me because as you may know, I was diagnosed with leukemia at the young age of 10 forcing me to abandon my childhood for rigorous treatment including high doses of chemotherapy and radiation. After a week of intrathecal chemotherapy, I lost the use of my legs due to the intensity of my treatment. I continued my treatment as a paraplegic for a year until I went into remission. Unfortunately, after a short time being in remission, the leukemia returned. Since the cancer came back a second time even stronger I needed a bone marrow transplant. My little brother Nicolas selflessly donated his bone marrow to save my life on Valentine's day 2012, and I have been cancer free ever since!!!

    ​          

I am blessed to be alive and well but unfortunately​ others are not as fortunate​ as me. Blood cancer effects 172,910 people and takes the life of 58,300 yearly in the US. LLS sees this problem and strives to fix it by finding a cure. They have already made so much progress towards​ finding a cure and with your help we can make blood cancer a thing of the past!
