"The Friends of Jaclyn Foundation is inspired by Jaclyn Murphy, an 11 year old, who was diagnosed with a medulloblastoma, a malignant brain tumor, in March 2004. Jaclyn's strength and courage, relentless spirit, and joy for life are an inspiration to those who know her."
Jaclyn's father, Denis, works very hard to connect pediatric brain tumor patients with college sports teams, who will adopt them and make a difference in their lives. "It is our hope that through Jaclyn's example, we can help to improve the lives of other children and families dealing with pediatric cancer."
We just found out that James will be adopted by the North Carolina Men's Baseball Team.
James is very excited. In Chicago, James enjoyed going to the White Sox games, for whom he became an avid fan because of Dr. Goldman. We look forward to going to some of the games there in Chapel Hill, especially since James' cousin, Raechel, attends UNC in Chapel Hill.
Thank you, Denis, for doing this for the kids. You are making a difference.
"And of some have compassion, making a difference:" Jude 1:22
