Jared was born with a rare heart defect and despite the odds he lived a normal life after receiving a heart transplant at 5 months of age. At the age of 16 he was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and decided to not continue chemotherapy and be treated with alternative methods. Even with the uphill battle he endures Jared, our Kid Against Chemo continues to educate people and let them know we should all have a choice. We love to inspire people to realize they too can achieve their goals and if they follow how they feel it will led you in the right direction
