Fox News
The 54-year-old magician couldn’t contain his excitement when he took to Instagram on Monday to announce to the world that his son Johnny’s cancer is in remission six years after the 7-year-old was first diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2015.
The Las Vegas staple revealed a 13-minute short film, titled "1095," to commemorate Johnny’s remission, and the number is significant in the sense that it represents the number of days Johnny endured cancer treatment before relapsing in 2019.
"This is our family’s story, but it’s really the story of every family unfortunate enough to have a child with cancer," Angel said in a press release about the short film, which chronicle’s the boy’s harrowing journey. "This horrible disease impacts not just the children but all those that love them. Our hope is that as many people as possible can see 1095 — and be moved to help — so we can continue to raise awareness, improve treatment and one day find a cure."
