"Koa adores everything Neo does and follows him around. He’s already started walking and chatting because of Neo’s influence. The little moments of bliss when Neo makes Koa giggle with glee are beautiful to witness.

I was alone in an elevator when I got Neo’s diagnosis from my crying wife, Vanessa. We had asked the genetic counselor to wait until we were together for the news, but she just called and told her emotionlessly.

Hobbies: Reading, Going to Beach, & Playing with baby bro, Koa. The most important thing I do everyday is hug my mama and dada. I love laughing and dancing with my family, and looking at myself in the mirror. The best moment of my life was taking my oxygen tube off at 10 months old."
