Imagine a kid's devastation being told his neuroblastoma has relapsed for the third time, and how that sweet 12-year-old boy just wants to be well enough to go to school and hang out with his friends.Â
Sagi is mesmorized by VR. He often looks at VR headsets online, admiring how cool they seem. In honor of Sukkot, the Holiday of joy, we made Sagi's fantasy come into reality. Our volunteer Daniel took him and his family out for lunch and for dessert, we presented him with his dream gift.
"Sababa!" Sagi said with excitement. It was the Oculus Quest 3 headset! "I always wanted these!"
At that moment, surrounded by love and laughter, Sagi realized that while cancer might be a part of his story, it didn’t define him. He's a warrior, he's a brother, he's a son, he's a friend, he's a kid. And... if there is one thing we are certain of, it's happy kids heal faster!Â
We wish Sagi a speedy recovery!
