Ten-year-old Jacksen is a Summer Scamper stalwart, participating and fundraising for the past three years. His family says they are thankful for the outstanding care Jacksen has received following his 2007 diagnosis with Pompe disease, a neuromuscular disorder linked with an enzyme deficiency.
Jacksen receives infusions at our hospital to help combat the disease’s symptoms of muscle weakness and respiratory challenges. Jacksen’s dad, David, says, “The hospital is like family to us. We love all of you; thanks for all you do.”
