Jude is a shy, sweet and caring kid who loves “Star Wars,” Pokémon, Minecraft 🎮 and, most importantly, his family ❤️. But at 6 years old, he proved that underneath his shy and sweet nature, he’s as strong as they come 💪. It started in 2022 when he began experiencing exhaustion, vomiting and a bad headache that wouldn’t go away. This led his parents to bring him to Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital, where they discovered Jude had a golf-ball sized tumor in the back of his brain. Thanks to the team at Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Jude, 8, is now in remission and is back to being a kid again 🎉.
