Santos is 11 years old and has 3 brothers and sisters. He was diagnosed with leukemia and because of it he missed a lot of school and learning. He loves football and basketball as some of his favorite activities. Some of his favorite things are his dog, Rocky, his Play Station to play “Fortnight”, and his family members. They are special to him because they are always there for him. He is special because he is a cancer survivor and most people don’t make it. His favorite saying is “I beat cancer’s butt!”
