When Marc’s son Matthew was born with an illness that left him needing extensive care, he dedicated his life to supporting and advocating for him.
Despite any challenges they faced, Marc was committed to caring for his son as best as possible, ensuring all of his needs were met and including him in all family activities, celebrations and trips no matter the extra steps and equipment required.
He has also spent countless days by Matthew’s side at SickKids hospital.
Sadly, Matthew passed away earlier this year.
Many of Marc’s loved ones wrote to SooToday to share his story.
Since this is the first Christmas without Matthew, they were hoping we could deliver him and his family a gift that will make their holiday season a little bit easier.
