At 12 years old, Jalen was enjoying school, playing music and hanging out with friends, when an unexpected non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis made him worried about his future. Throughout four difficult cycles of chemotherapy, Jalen kept his spirits up by dancing through treatment, crediting his nurses for keeping him as comfortable as possible.
Two years later, Jalen is cancer free and back to his favorite activities, like playing music in his high school band. He’s president of his school’s Beta Club and recently organized a toy drive for Children’s to give back to the Children’s community and help other kids going through chemo.
