Makis’s dream
It was a different day than the rest. On Friday, players and coaching staff were treated to a life lesson by a young fan of the team and they fulfilled a dream of this little hero.
Makis is a 14-year old student. Last February, he had to give the toughest battle of his life. And came out a winner. He was diagnosed with a sarcoma, but returned home healthy on June after completing a series of therapies. Today he is going through physiotherapy for a complete recovery.
The biggest love of Makis’s life is PΑΟΚ. Before having his first surgery, he got a promise by his doctor that he would get Stelios Malezas’s shirt when he wakes up. After a lengthy operation, everyone was asking him how he was feeling, but he was only looking for the shirt…
He had one big dream: to meet up close the players of his favourite team.
«The Smile of the Child», through their initiative “Recreational activities for hospitalized children», found out about Makis’s wish and made his dream come true in cooperation with PAOK FC and PAOK Action.
The young boy came to the club’s training centre on Friday and, after a tour around the installations, he met all the members of the football section. He didn’t stop taking photos with all the players, especially with his idol Djalma Campos, and also watched part of training.
