I'm Riding For
Jaxan
Riding for Jaxan this year. A local kid here in Pensacola. A couple of years ago Jaxan was diagnosed with cancer as a kid. He had to endure so many procedures, doctors and hospital stays. He was strong. Jaxan Strong which was a social media story we could follow along as his parents updated Jaxan's progress. This cool kid was tough and fought hard. Diagnosed with CNS Embryonal brain cancer 1/26/2021 and in remission since 11/18/2022. #JaxanStrong
My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This year I am riding to celebrate a rare thing where a kid showed so much courage and strength to fight cancer. He won! I hope my ride, his story can inspire others to keep fighting. I hope it encourages many of you to support me.
Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
Jaxan was diagnosed with CNS Embryonal brain cancer 1/26/2021 and now is in remission since 11/18/2022.
Your support will change little lives like his!
Thank you.
