A Cap from the Man under the White Helmet

Diagnosis: Leukemia

Cap Hero: Marshmello 

Funny, quiet, driven, competitive, caring and sweet…this is how people who know him describe 15-year-old Quentin, a 9th grader from Minnesota. 

At the height of his chemo journey, Quentin sported a cap signed by Marshmello, an electric music producer and DJ. Marshmello’s identity was kept secret until Forbes confirmed that the man under the custom white helmet resembling a marshmallow was indeed Chris Comstock. Quentin enjoys listening to Marshmallo’s music because “he has cool beats.”

Marshmello once said, “You just can’t eat a person who never gives up.” And “most people are stronger than they think.” Important words for a teen fighting Leukemia to remember.

“Nothing is impossible. Never give up.”
