Please Help Pyro Meet Batista
Pyro is a three-year-old boy who has lung cancer. He was diagnosed with the sickness a year ago. He has been undergoing surgery and chemotherapy since. It is really heartbreaking to know that such a young child (still a baby, right?!) is facing this dreaded disease. His Aunt Mec chronicles his brave battles in the blog “In Times of Pain.”.
Like every little boy, Pyro has his favorites — mocha cake, stuffed toys and wrestling. Pyro adores Batista. It is perfect timing to know that SMACKDOWN is coming this October. Pyro wishes to meet his idol. And we, friends of Pyro, would like to grant this little boy’s wish.
Several of us have tried contacting various foundations and WWE contacts. I have taken steps in trying to get in touch GMA-7′s Wish Ko Lang. I know that the SMACKDOWN event is scheduled for only 2 days, but I do hope that within the time that they are here, a little boy’s wish can be granted.
Perhaps you know a way to help make this wish come true. Perhaps you know Batista‘s agents, the people who make these kinds of events happen… Perhaps you know Batista himself! He will be making appearances in Massapequa, NY on Sept. 23; Raleigh, NC on Oct. 2; San Francisco, CA on Oct. 14. If you would like to help grant his wish, I can put you in touch with his family.
WANTED: BATISTA. We are trying the best we can to help Pyro meet his idol. We hope you can help grant this little boy’s wish too.

I hope and pray that Pyro’s wish will come true. I posted also about his wish in my blog.
I am trying to forward the response to the email I sent out to Py’s parents but I dont know how to contact them. I will forward it to you instead. The response sounded very positive. If Batista is already going to be in the Philippines, I’m sure they can honor Pyro’s request.
