He is a man of stature, a colorectal cancer patient who is a true symbol of courage and perseverance. He portrayed how one can achieve anything in life with focus and resourcefulness.

Jason used to fully cherish his younghood by playing soccer, mountaineering, swimming, and running marathons before he was diagnosed with cancer back in Nov 2011. His parents were in complete shock when they learned about his illness. They shared their experience by saying, "Life is ever-changing and can be really shocking at times, but very few face what we did.”
They couldn't stand the thought that they can lose their son. It was not an option for them so they prioritized Jason needs above everything else and were ready to do whatever that was needed to be done.
