Twenty-nine-year-old, Jake Densen’s life was like that of any other Los Angeles twenty-something: a blossoming career in the television industry, great friends, and a supportive family.

All of that was suddenly put to the test when, in March of 2015, an unusual skin rash led to a diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia or AML. In just two weeks, Jake’s life went from the carefree enjoyment of cheeseburgers and LA beaches to doctors appointments, chemotherapy, and a bone marrow transplant.
