Tunnels of Joy Recipient
Hi everyone, we would like to introduce you to this year’s Tunnels of Joy recipient:
Hi my name is Cristian Munoz and I am 11 years old. I play football for the Oakley falcons and my hobbies include riding my electric scooter and spending time with friends and family. In September I had an accident at school. I fell while playing football with my friends. I began to feel pain, my mom took me to the ER where they found I was bleeding internally and found a tumor on my kidney the size of an orange. I was diagnosed with Wilms tumor and stage 3 cancer shortly after that discovery. I underwent a major surgery to remove my kidney and the tumor, which was successful. I have already completed radiation and one month of chemotherapy and have 7 months left to go!
