Stand with Jacob Against Cancer
Donation protected
On January 19, my best friend was forced to face something no newlywed, or anyone, should ever have to. Jacob was diagnosed with stage 2A testicular cancer. It is a mixed cancer, meaning it is two kinds, 60% being teratoma. This cancer does not respond to chemo or radiation. Jacob has been referred to UVA for further treatment and surgeries to remove infected lymph nodes behind his intestines and in front of his left kidney.
Jacob and Rose were just married in September. They have three amazing children who they are trying to protect from this situation as best as possible.
