Manny, leukemia survivor

Manny’s Story
To his family, Emmanuel ("Manny") was a typical little boy until he was 18 months old—that’s when Manny, who was born with Down Syndrome, was diagnosed with AML. Manny fought blood cancer with a brave smile on his face as he received round after round of chemotherapy. And from the physicians to the cleaning staff at Texas Children's Hospital, everyone was touched by Manny's hope and joy in some way as he went through his blood cancer journey. The great news is that Manny has been in remission for nine years, and he continues to spread warmth, hope, and joy to everyone he meets.
