Kristina Jerome | Anna’s Pal's: Beach House for Immunocompromised Children
Sunday, 12 September, 2021
Anna had a heart for others. Anna Jerome was a very happy, friendly and smart girl. She was a daughter, a twin, a big sister, a cousin, a student, an athlete, a band member and a friend. She attended the elementary school where her mother taught with her brother and sister. When she received her diagnosis of AML, an aggressive form of Leukemia, the summer before her freshman year at Boston Latin school, the whole community was shaken. Anna enjoyed shopping, music and going to Patriot games with her "padre". But, most of all she loved the beach: Cape with her cousins or Myrtle Beach with her family. Anna loved life and especially loved going out and enjoying it. She was incredibly kind and thoughtful. She made a difference in the lives of all around her. After Anna's first round of treatment and achieving remission, her doctors told her that she was eligible for Make A Wish. She declined, stating that she was already fortunate and the Wish should be offered to someone who really needs it. It is with all of this in mind that Anna's Pals was created. We hope to continue her legacy of kindness.
