It’s Wish Day here at Newstalk! Sarah Barnes speaks to Pat about her family’s experience with Make A Wish following her son’s Kian battle with cancer. Kian Barnes Abo was diagnosed with acute onset cancer at the age of two.

After living in a hospital for nearly two years, Kian was finally released home to his family and last year was the year that Kian's wish was granted. Kian and his family went to the UK in collaboration with Disney to recreate a Disneyland theme park that was accessible for children with chronic illnesses.
