Goose was diagnosed in February 2018 when he could not get rid of a lingering cough. A chest x-ray ordered by pulmonologist revealed a lymphoma tumor. His treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma included six cycles of chemotherapy and he completed treatment in July. In the fall, Goose will be entering the 11th grade at Buckingham Browne & Nichols School in Cambridge. Goose is supported by his mother and father, Jon and Barb, and younger brother, Teddy, 13. In his spare time, he loves to teach skiing, golf, and watch pro sports -- especially the Red Sox and the Celtics.
What he thinks about the Jimmy Fund Clinic - The Jimmy Fund Clinic is so special and amazing because they are good at being the least bad. What I mean by that is under no circumstances will toxic chemicals being pumped into your body be a “enjoyable” experience; yet what makes the Jimmy Fund so special is that they do everything they can, trips to Florida, a positive and helpful team of doctors and nurses, etc., to ensure that this crapshoot is as painless as possible.
