Jaylen began his battle with Aplastic Anemia the day after Mother’s Day 3 years ago. He was strong and never complained. Jaylen attended Eagle Ridge Elementary up until 1st grade when he got sick. He was not able to go back to school due to his illness. Jaylen was such a strong and powerful kid and cared so much for others and thought about and put everyone before himself. He was just so pleasant to be around and always had a smile on his face.
