Jenny receives a kiss from her mom.
At the time, Jenny finished treatment and returned to St. Jude for regular checkup appointments. Her parents were very grateful for the care and additional support they had received at St. Jude.
St. Jude not only gives my daughter the medical care that she needs, but they help our entire family. I never imagined that it would be this way.
Ramon, Jenny's dad
