Zo was diagnosed with cancer at 4 months—he smiled through chemo, beat the odds, and inspires us daily. A true miracle. #ToddlerOfTheYear

Zo is so full of life. He’s never met a stranger. He’s funny, bossy, kind, loving and so fearless. He often tells me “mommy I do it by myself, I’m brave” and he is! Despite everything he’s been through and the every 3 month doctor appointments where they poke and prod him he’s stays smiling and happy. We’re so blessed to be his parents.
What are Zoronachi "Zo" Okpara's favorite activities?He loves to boss us around, and tell us how to dance the “correct” way. He’s like our own personal dance teacher but the youngest of the family. You can’t do an off dance step with Zo around. He loves watching anything about Zombies. He loves to walk up to strangers and learn more about them. He loves race cars specifically Hot Wheels, and he loves to tell stories. Zo has a big vocabulary and loves to talk and share big and sometimes scary/spooky stories.
How would $25,000 impact your family?It would be a blessing to us. Zo has to be followed for 10 years and although we have insurance it doesn’t cover everything and we are often paying for check ups (ultrasound, blood work, X-rays at every appointment) out of pocket. This would be a blessing to help us cover his doctor appointments that we go to every three months.
