Meet Wesley
Four-year-old Wesley Haskins is the 2024 Ambassador for Anthem LemonAid presented by Richmond Ford. Wesley was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare type of cancer that forms in the soft tissue. In December 2023, when Wesley began limping, Jade and Roland thought he may be experiencing growing pains. But when the limp returned with pain, Wesley’s pediatrician requested an x-ray, which showed a lesion on his leg bone. Within a few days, the family traveled from their Fredericksburg home to Children's Hospital of Richmond at VCU.
Less than two months after coming to CHoR, Wesley was chosen as LemonAid Ambassador. Describing Wesley as an “entertainer and people person,” Jade said he’s excited about his role and being featured in the Young at Heart magazine.
