Face to Face with Jace.
Name: Jace
Interests: Legos, football, basketball, reading and playing video games
Diagnosis: NTRK Rearranged Mesenchymal Sarcoma
Cap Hero: Drew Brees
When Jace grows up, he wants to be a quarterback. In his words, the cap signed by his hero Drew Brees means “I made it through cancer and people care about me.”
As an athlete, Jace has a positive attitude and competitive streak. He’s also laid back and goes with the flow. This combination of traits has served him well in his battle with cancer which has included surgery to remove a large tumor in his thigh and chemo pills. Jace loves to show his friends his cap and we’re so pleased to have been able to secure it for him.
Drew once said, “Sometimes all you need is just for somebody to believe in you in order to accomplish maybe what you never thought you could.” We’d like to thank Drew for being that someone for Jace.
