ON MEETING
On January 21, 2009 Celine Dion performed at the RBC Center in Raleigh, United States with "Taking Chances World Tour" and few minutes before the concert, a great dream come true for a little boy named Ryan and his parents. The family met Celine. Ryan is five years old and has cancer. With two years Ryan was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma a cancer which is attacking his nervous system. In his young life Ryan has gone through seven chemotherapies, 20 radiation therapy treatments, twelve surgeries and a bone marrow transplant. "The worst part was watching him suffer. Not knowing if he was going to live", Ryan´s mom said. For now Ryan´s cancer free. Soon he is about to have his 2-year scan to see if he's still cancer free. The family always find in this difficult time consolation in the music of Celine. The special song "A new day has come" is always giving them a lot of courage and strength and hope. The U.S. TV show "Trouble Shooter" received a letter from Ryans Aunt Connie. The presenter of the show Diane Wilson was so taken by the fate of the family that she has decided to surprise the family with four "Taking Chances" concert tickets. Before the concert, the family had a very personal and heart touching meet & greet with Celine.
