Macario is amazing, a true super hero. He smiles all the time, even when he was on chemo, he smiled through it all. Macario is a character and he likes to make everyone laugh. He loves animals and stuffed animals. Youtube is a must do thing everyday!
Macario was diagnosed with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in November of 2017. Prior to his diagnosis, he started to become inactive and pale and he lost about 50 pounds. He also had really bad breathing problems. Macario has endured many round of chemo, lumbar punctures, and steroids. He never went into remission so he has also been through CAR-T cell therapy and gets IVIG once a month.
Life has changed dramatically for our family. We live in fear of sickness and germs. We live in fear of everything. Macario has problems going up and down stairs and his issues with his speech.
Macario doesn’t let being a cancer patient stop him at all though. He is such a strong little boy!
