Thirteen-Year-Old Fights Rare Leukemia

from Jackson News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A brave 13-year-old, Jacola Youngblood, battles a rare form of leukemia usually seen in adults, facing grueling 24-hour chemo sessions and a two-year treatment road ahead. Despite the pain and fatigue, she keeps a bright spirit, even cruising town in her new street-legal golf cart — a Make-A-Wish gift that replaced her original Bahamas trip. Her mom, overwhelmed by fear and now stranded without a car for medical trips, is turning to a GoFundMe for help — and if you see Jacola zipping by, don’t forget to wave.
