Local students honored for raising cancer research funds

A Ridge Point High School student has watched family members battle cancer before, and her experience with it convinced her to help raise money for those currently in the fight, she said. Both of Ridge Point High School student Juliana Jaasma’s grandmothers were previously diagnosed with cancer, including one previously being diagnosed with multiple myeloma – a cancer during which cancerous plasma cells accumulate in the bone marrow and crowd out healthy blood cells. Both are currently in remission, Jaasma said, but that does not make the mission behind her participation in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) annual Students of the Year fundraising campaign any less personal.
