Alexis Johnson is a 14-year Osteosarcoma Cancer survivor and an amputee. During her treatment, Alexis spent countless hours in the hospital and became close with the patients around her. It was here that she met some of the most incredible children who never let their illness stands in their way. She watched them bravely battle Osteosarcoma and many losing their fight due to exhausting all treatment options. Alexis learned that there has been no new treatments and not enough research done. This drove Alexis to wanting to do something to help change this outcome. This led to Alexis dedicating her life to becoming an advocate in the fight against Osteosarcoma. She joined the wonderful MIB program several year ago and has worked on several initiatives with them. Alexis is currently in her fourth year of medical school at the University of Arizona with an end goal of becoming a pediatric oncologist. Alexis grew up in San Diego, has a huge support system of 5 brother and sisters and family.
