Patient Story - A Life Changing Journey

Leonidas and Minerva

In early 2018, Leonidas and Minerva faced every parent’s worst nightmare. Their four-month old son, Leonidas Jr., passed away suddenly. It was devastating, and they felt lost, confused and didn’t know what to do with their lives. Their emotional struggle was overwhelming, and they found themselves at a crossroads.

“Instead of being destroyed, we chose to re-evaluate our lives and do whatever we could to make our lives better,” Leonidas said.
