Enock Osoro
2008 – 2012
Guest at Living Room: September 2, 2011 – April 23, 2012
Enock Osoro arrived at Living Room on the back of a motorcycle one Monday morning after his mother and he had traveled for seven hours in search of help. Osoro’s little face was grossly disfigured by a massive tumor, and after several failed attempts to get a proper diagnosis or treatment, they were instructed to go to Living Room: “a place where people are helped.” While under Living Room’s care, Osoro’s cancer was treated, and his pain and symptoms were relieved. His playful spirit came back to life as the tumor initially responded to chemotherapy. He was dearly loved by the staff and brought much joy and laughter to all in the Living Room. Osoro was a very articulate little boy—one never had to wonder what he wanted. Several months into his chemotherapy, the tumor resurfaced and, cancer spread throughout his body. The Living Room team had the painful privilege of standing with Osoro and his family until his death.
Osoro is worth running for
