Meet the Cahoon family. Max is a 31-year-old husband to Chelsea and a father to 2 small children, Jaxon (9) and Stella (6). Max was diagnosed with a rare form of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Prior to his diagnosis, he was strong, healthy and the provider for his family. He was active and enjoyed jiu jitsu. In fact, he was training for a tournament in March. Unfortunately, he caught COVID-19 and an infection in his thumb which his body was unable to fight due to the underlying condition of AML. This form of leukemia is very rare and requires treatment which includes induction chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant to ensure his body will not grow the cancer back. Treatment must take place in Seattle, and he must spend the next 4-8 months there. He will not be able to return to his normal life for a year or longer. While in treatment, he will need a caregiver 24 hours a day to monitor him for any signs of infection or complications. His wife, Chelsea, will be that person for at least the first month. As you know, there are huge expenses associated with cancer treatment so all the proceeds from everything collected from the items in this auction will go towards the Cahoon family.
