A 13-year-old boy sworn in by the Secret Service after inspiring President Donald Trump with his fight against incurable brain cancer, was recently diagnosed with three additional tumors.

The White House said Friday that Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel’s father, Theodis, revealed his son has three new tumors.

“We’re lifting up Agent DJ Daniel in prayer after his dad, Theodis, shared that DJ is now facing three new tumors,” the White House wrote in an X post. 

“DJ is one of the strongest, bravest young men—and has now been sworn into 1,351 law enforcement agencies across the country. Agent Daniel, you’re a true legend.”

Most recently, Daniel was sworn in by the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office in Texas.

“I saw Theodis pick his son up,” Williamson County Deputy Jeffrey Combs told FOX 7. “I felt that unconditional love, and I just knew I had to find DJ. So, it all worked out.”

His most recent federal agency swearing-in happened in April when a fellow cancer survivor, Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, named him an honorary United States Park Police officer.
