Hans now has a new little bro with him up in Heaven. Our young friend Isaias lost his battle to his Neuroblastoma this week. Isaias was only 2 when I met him and he instantly charmed me. When Hans started getting treatment in LA, we didn't know as many families as we had at TCH. Isaias was one of the first boys we met there while he and Hans were going through radiation therapy. He met me by charging me $2 for a kiss for his Relay for Life campaign. He stole my heart with that kiss! Isaias was an outgoing little guy and everyone in the clinic knew him. Both he and his mom had a way of making a connection with everyone they met. Perla fought a beautiful battle for her boy. The deep mother-son love bond those two have created in their effort to keep Isaias alive is stunning.
He was only three when he was life here on earth ended. With such a strong spirit, and so much outflowing love at that young age, I think once again that the loss of that life to the world at large is just incalculable.
Praying for you Perla, Isaias, and your entire family.
Love is forever.
