The luck o' the Irish!

 

Little Luke and Olivia Menard know a little something about the luck o' the Irish. Mom, Erica Lasota, formerly of Woburn, and the kids live in Atlanta now, but have come back home to help Luke battle illness. Luke, who will be two next month, had a liver transplant at Boston Children's Hospital in July and is currently battling lymphoma. His grandma, Julie Lasotta, said the disease was caused by medications needed to make his liver "happy." But little Luke handles the illness like a trooper and is mommy's "lucky charm!" Olivia is three-years-old and is in pre-school in Georgia.

Many thanks to Julie for sharing Luke and Olivia with Woburn Patch and our readers!
