• Local Boy Gets Amazing Birthday Wish

If you were near Grand Ave early Saturday evening you may have heard the roar of an exotic car, screaming through the gears, as young Omar Carlón was given a ride to remember.

Omar, a lover of exotic cars, is battling cancer and a wish of his was to see a Lamborghini.

Omar and Nilsa Carlón are the parents of Omar Jr, and his four siblings that go to Wildomar schools.

Local realtor Melina Gonzales, also part of the RADD Foundation, a local nonprofit for awareness of childhood cancer, assisted in getting the party from drawing board to reality.

Professional boxer Mikey Garcia, friends with the family, heard about Omar's 11th birthday and asked if he could "invite a few friends". Word got out with a few of his friends and before they knew it they had fifteen exotic cars ready to drive to Wildomar to celebrate Omar's birthday.
Vroom!
The list included Lamborghini, Porches, McLaren, Viper, Audi and Ferrari. 
Not a sight seen everyday in Wildomar.

From the GoFundMe page:
Omar Carlón is a 10 year old boy that was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in his right femur on January 14th 2020. The day of his diagnosis we were also told that it had spread to his right lung. 

Right away Omar started chemotherapy at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego California.  On March 17th after an mri we were given the devastating news that the tumor had grown 4x it’s size and that it had spread to both lungs. 

We were told there is no chance of surgery and to go home and make memories. No parent should ever have to hear those words ever. Omar is still doing chemo therapy and radiation to keep everything stable for now. Omar is such a sweet and loving boy that just wants to live and do so much. 

has so many dreams and goals he wants to accomplish but cancer is not letting him do all those things. Omar loves legos and his dream car is a Blue Lamborghini. We want to make his dreams come true because we really don’t know how much time we have with our sweet boy. Financially medical costs have really put us back significantly. 

We just want to be with our boy all the time and enjoy him as much as we possibly can. If you can make any kind of donation to help us make our sons days happier and to make the best memories with him. We would truly appreciate it.  

Thank you♥️ FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART THANK YOU♥️

Omar Carlón es un niño de 10 años que fue diagnosticado con Osteosarcoma en su fémur derecho el 14 de enero de 2020. El día de su diagnóstico también nos dijeron que se había extendido a su pulmón derecho. De inmediato, Omar comenzó la quimioterapia en el Rady Children's Hospital en San Diego, California. 

El 17 de marzo, después de una resonancia magnética, nos dieron la devastadora noticia de que el tumor había crecido 4 veces su tamaño y que se había extendido a ambos pulmones. Nos dijeron que no hay posibilidad de cirugía y que nos vayamos a casa y hagamos recuerdos.

Ningún padre debería tener que escuchar esas palabras nunca. Omar todavía está recibiendo quimioterapia y radiación para mantener todo estable por ahora. Omar es un Niño tan dulce y cariñoso que solo quiere vivir y hacer tantas cosas. Tiene tantos sueños y metas que quiere lograr, pero el cáncer no le permite hacer todas esas cosas. A Omar le encantan los legos y el coche de sus sueños es un Lamborghini azul. 

Queremos hacer realidad sus sueños porque realmente no sabemos cuánto tiempo tenemos con nuestro hijo. Los costos médicos financieros realmente nos han hecho retroceder significativamente. Solo queremos estar con nuestro chico todo el tiempo y disfrutarlo tanto como podamos. 

Si puedes hacer algún tipo de donación para ayudarnos a hacer más felices los días de nuestro hijo y hacer los mejores recuerdos con él. Realmente lo agradeceríamos.
 
Gracias ♥️DESDE EL FONDO DE MI CORAZON GRACIAS ♥ ️
