Jaiden, At age 4, Lymphoma

At a local children’s hospital, Jaiden underwent tests that revealed he suffered from Hodgkin’s lymphoma. His family turned to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® for his treatment, which includes chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Jaiden is an outgoing boy who loves sports and doing arts and crafts. He’s also a great big brother.
