Junior Depaz

Victor Depaz mostly known as Junior is such a happy two year old that loves to dance along to Bruno Mars and Ariana Grande, he also loves to make his own tunes with his instruments. Sadly on May 17th we brought him into the UMass Medical Center emergency room due to him not being able to void by himself five days later on May 22nd he was diagnosed with Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma at Boston Children's Hospital and it was the hardest news our family has ever received. Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that is found around the urinary bladder, the tumor that Junior has is located under the urinary bladder, around his prostate, and squishing is urethra which doesn't allow him to pee on his own. Currently Junior uses a catheter to urinate and he has a port to be able to get his chemotherapy. It's been a very hard road for us but thanks to God, Junior has continued to smile and dance along to all his favorite tunes , he has good days and some not so good days but he has been very strong. Our family has been closer than ever and everybody has been very helpful with him and his youngest sister, our faith has gotten stronger and we know that Junior is in God's hands. We want to thank everybody who has our family in their prayers and for always looking out for us and making us feel a bit better. May God bless you all and once again thank you.
