Max was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2014. His doctors
thought he was having recurrent ear infections and then they noticed his stomach had become distended. His pediatrician suggested blood work, which revealed leukemia.

· His treatment included chemotherapy, and he is slated to complete treatment in
September.
· Max enjoys lacrosse, soccer, video games, skiing and sailing, and he’s looking
forward to starting seventh grade.
The family thinks the Jimmy Fund Clinic is filled with especially caring doctors,
nurses and staff who always do their best to ensure that families are safe and
comfortable.
