WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon

Max and his family were featured on the Radio-Telethon in 2015 and 2017. Max was being treated for Ewing sarcoma in May 2015 and after 18 months of remission, his cancer returned. He had 4 nodules in his lungs. He will continue his treatment over the next 11 months. (He has been, and continues to be, on treatment since last June.)

He takes chemotherapy pills everyday along with 5 days of treatment every four weeks. The trial, known as PAZIT, is brand new at Dana-Farber.

Max will be in third grade at Coolidge Elementary School and just completed his second season of Little League Baseball. He was chosen for the All-Star team and he loves to pitch and catch.

In July, Max and his family attended a Red Sox game with the local CIA office. Max and his brother used aliases, Papa Churro and Omega, during their visit. They had a police escort to Fenway and threw out the first pitch
