FlyingVolvo is the real MVS hero

Post by matthew1 »

Here is FlyingVolvo's post from Facebook:
So I know I’ve posted a lot of Mando stuff recently, but this last weekend I got to be a part of something that was really heartwarming. Owen is a 2 ½ year old kid who absolutely loves The Mandalorian. He was born with Amyoplasia, which basically is a condition that left him with little to no muscular development. He's had many surgeries and still faces a long road ahead. Mostly wheelchair-bound, his family wanted to do something special for Halloween. A local cosplay group, the Umbrella Corporation Southern Kansas Hive (Resident Evil) handbuilt him a pram from the show so he could be “The Child” for Halloween. They asked if I would drive up to be the Mando to deliver it to Owen and his family. The comic cons have been a lot of fun, but this was different in so many ways. Thanks Darman (and Jennifer) for reaching out about it, you all did the actual hard work.

This is the Way.
