Miracle Monday: Lucas

Happy #MiracleMonday!

Today we are going to start this Monday off by meeting 7-year-old Lucas. He was diagnosed with severe allergies, epilepsy, Eosenophalic Esophogitis, and Jobe’s Syndrome. Jobe’s Syndrome is a rare condition that makes him very susceptible to infections. He has 60 pages worth of allergies, which also increase his infections, so he has spent much of his life in the hospital. However, when Lucas was 4, he was finally able to play a sport for the first time! Let’s learn some more fun facts about Lucas.
