Welcome to Jack's Place!

Hi I am Jack! Welcome to my place! My mom and dad helped me create this website to let family and friends know all about my journey with Langerhans Cell Histocytosis (LCH).

I am a very special and strong boy. I have been fighting LCH since February, 2005. With the help of family and friends and lots of prayers I am fighting a good fight. I have made it through surgeries, CT scans, MRIs and many x-rays! I am currently in the middle of fighting LCH with chemotherapy. My mom and dad say I am their hero.

Thank you for visiting my website. Your good thoughts and prayers for me and all the children with Histiocytosis are making a world of difference.
