The Make-Awish Foundation in Panama arranged for Dylan Morales to come to Philadelphia with his mom to undergo leg surgery for him at Shriners Hospital.

“This country is great for my family,” said Anna Morales. “Everyone is happy to see it, and it’s good.

Anna Morales said she was full of gratitude during her visit, thanks to the hospitality at RMHC and the medical expertise of Shriners. Of course, the visit to Philadelphia Games is unimaginable.

“It’s good, it’s good,” she said. “Dylan and me [are] Very happy. ”

The meeting gathered with the help of Panama and the consulate office of a Facebook group.

“The community has indeed stepped up,” said Tamara Balbanan of the Panama Consulate Office.

“I’m just so happy for them,” she added. “I know they’ve been through a lot. She’s a good person and Dylan is great. They deserve it.”

After the operation, Dylan Morales was in a wheelchair and was approved by a doctor and he was happy to give up.

The Phillies now have new and forever fans.

Dylan Morales and his mom hope to return to Panama by the end of the month. They say Phillies and the city will always have a special place in their hearts.
