Jaxon was born with a congenital heart defect called tricuspid valve regurgitation. At just 9 years old, he faced his first open-heart surgery — a brave milestone for any child. Unfortunately, complications from the surgery led to a third-degree heart block, and Jaxon now relies on a pacemaker for life. His journey doesn’t stop there; he’ll need additional open-heart surgeries as he grows.


Despite all he’s been through, Jaxon is a happy, energetic kid with a love for life. He enjoys riding his bike, getting lost in hours of LEGO creations, and battling it out in his favorite video games. He’s also a budding sneakerhead — always keeping an eye out for the coolest kicks.


Jaxon’s wish is to go on a shopping spree at the american dream mall to find the perfect pair of sneakers (or two!). His family is especially excited to go to legoland and spend time together as a family.
