After seeing her then 9 year old son Jaxen hopping on one leg in June of 2023 because he felt pain, Maggie Licea wanted to take Jaxen to his pediatrician who was not available. Instead, Maggie took Jaxen to the nurse practitioner and told her that she suspected that he had cancer. The nurse practitioner disagreed but Maggie's persistence finally prevailed and Jaxen was given the necessary testing that revealed a diagnosis of Osteosarcoma. Jaxen is nearly 14 months past his original diagnosis and unfortunately suffered a relapse from this form of Bone Cancer last week.
