Joycelun has had a tough time recently. She’s been battling cystic fibrosis since she was five months old and in recent years, her health declined so much that she needed to be on oxygen 24/7. She is currently recovering from a lung transplant, so to boost her spirits, her stepsister Katie decided to surprise her by organizing a visit from Manny.

Manny and his “dad” John, agreed to travel from Chicago to New Orleans to surprise Joycelun and to present her with a check for $500 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
