While Battling Rare Disease, Young Boy Hopes to Reunite with Family

A 5-year-old boy living in Canyon Country is not only fighting a rare disease; he and the family he is living with are also fighting to bring the boy’s parents from Syria to the United States.

Living with his aunt’s family in order to get treatments in the U.S., the family is uncertain as to when the boy will be able to see his parents and 4-month-old sister again.

Now, they are hoping U.S. lawmakers can help them bring the boy’s parents to the U.S. to be by his side as he is treated.
