Walk for Jojo
Life can change in the blink of an eye. Just weeks before his first birthday, Jojo was taken to the hospital for what seemed like severe congestion. Shortly after being admitted for observation, our family received heartbreaking news; Jojo was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma, a brain tumor, and needed emergency surgery.
Despite everything he endured, Jojo remained a happy baby with the most contagious smile. He loved Elmo, SpongeBob, oldies music, and being surrounded by the people who loved him so deeply. His strength touched every nurse, doctor, and visitor who met him.
On November 9, 2006, we lost Jojo at just two years old. Every year, we continue this walk to honor his memory, celebrate his beautiful spirit, and keep his light alive in our hearts forever.
