John Foy & Associates has announced Madilyn Abor as the recipient of the 2025 Strong Arm Leukemia Scholarship. The $1,000 award will support Abor's final semester at Baylor University, where she is completing a Bachelor of Science in Public Health. Abor, who was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia at age 9, endured intensive treatment that included septic shock and organ failure. She has since dedicated herself to helping children with life-threatening conditions.
In her scholarship essay, Abor described her physical suffering and survivor's guilt, emphasizing her determination to become a pediatric oncology physician assistant. She plans to enter a PA program after a year of work as a medical assistant. Abor noted that she wants to 'stand beside children who need someone to help them see their own strength, and to ensure they know their battles do not define them.' She has already gained experience as a camp counselor with Camp John Mark.
The legal team at John Foy & Associates was moved by Abor's story and hopes the scholarship will ease her final semester.
