make a wish

Best flight attendant ever.

This has been a pretty awesome weekend for Bo Valarde-Chan, a 10 year old boy from Kalamazoo. You see, Bo suffers from Microvillus Inclusion Disease which is an extremely rare and life threatening.  Because of his disease, he receives all his nutrition and hydration pumped directly into his heart as his intestines do not function properly...

Stories like this always hit me hard. I mean, when adults are fighting cancer it's tough enough to imagine what they're facing. However, when it's a kid, whew. Today, one of those brave kids is getting his wish via the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Michigan.
