In five and a half years, Phoenix has triumphed over more pain and adversity than most could imagine in a lifetime. It’s incredible to think of the amount of strength and power coming from this young rams fan. Phoenix was born with kidney failure at the time of birth and the doctors expected the worse to come for the Murillo family.
However Phoenix was not going to give up one bit. At two weeks old, he had both of his kidneys removed from him, and kept getting stronger. After the surgery he underwent dialysis three-four days a week for the next three and a half years.
