Thank you for granting wishes like Cohen’s
Cohen is a joyful, loving, and mischievous six-year-old who loves spending time with his siblings, playing Legos, and video games. He also loves watching Harry Potter and Star Wars. He is excited to be in maintenance right now, and he is healthy enough to attend school and share his enduring positive personality with his teachers and peers every day. He loves being around people and instantly lights up the room with his energy.
Just before Christmas of 2020, Cohen suffered a low fever for several days. His family took him to be tested for strep throat and the flu, but the symptoms continued to worsen. By New Year’s Eve, they took him to Primary Children’s and received the news that Cohen had leukemia. Luckily, Cohen’s constant positive outlook continues to shine through his diagnosis and keeps him and everyone around him feeling hopeful and loved. When he’s not busy lighting up the room for everyone around him, Cohen can be found trying out the newest Mario video games. He has played nearly every version from Super Mario to Smash Bros, and definitely plays to win.
Cohen is still thinking about his wish. He would love to travel somewhere to experience one of his favorite franchises in real life but has to limit his exposure to flights and crowds right now. The anticipation of his wish is a source of excitement and hope for Cohen and his family. Through all of his challenges, Cohen inspires his family, friends, and medical team with his resilience, positivity, and care for others.
