He is a heroic survivor, not just of his illness, but of his background, and he very much wants to succeed in life. Biannual medical checkups will be necessary to ensure that he continues his good health.

Support in his continue medical progress and encouragement to continue his academic progress to pursue his future dreams would be a wonderful gift for this special child.
