Dying Boy’s Wish Granted After Call From Ryan Reynolds- [VIDEO]
As a parent, it's very easy for us to put ourselves in the shoes of these parents. I can't tell you the sadness that overtook my heart when I watched this and thought, "what if this was Khloe or Elijah talking to Ryan Reynolds". I love when actors and musicians use the fame that have been given and create amazing moments in people's lives. Obviously, Ryan didn't have to take the time out of his busy shooting schedule and talk to this young boy, but I think it speaks to the kind of man that he is!
As reported by SWNS TV:
This is the moment a five-year-old boy has his dying wish granted when he gets a call from his hero Ryan Reynolds - on the set of Deadpool 2. Marvel fanatic Daniel Downing has just months to live after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. His heartbroken family were given the devastating news earlier this month after taking him to the opticians thinking he just needed glasses. But they are now just trying to make his final days as special as possible. And they said the youngster's spirits were lift immeasurably with the 15-minute FaceTime session with his idol.
