Step by step, Juván keeps fighting

With every small movement, sip and smile, 15-month-old Juván Havenga from Wilderness is showing just how powerful courage, love and faith can be.

Now breathing on his own and free of the tubes and wires that once surrounded him, Juván is slowly but surely reclaiming his world.

Through intensive rehabilitation and therapy, he is learning to sit again - even if only for a few moments at a time. "It may seem small, but for us it's a miracle," says his mother, Adelizé. "Every wobble, every effort, every tear and every smile shows his courage. We are so proud of our warrior boy. One day at a time, one milestone at a time."
