A 4-year-old with a rare disease became best friends with the janitor who cleaned his hospital room during every visit. They bonded over popcorn, slushies and coloring books.
The friends first met a year ago when 4-year-old Cooper Baltzell was driving a toy car down the hospital corridor, handing out candy to the staff.
It was during one of Cooper's many hospital stays for Hirschsprung disease, a rare, inherited condition affecting the body's digestive system. That's when he bumped into 57-year-old Gregory Watson, a housekeeper at the facility. "I was doing a discharge and he goes, 'Sir do you want some candy?' I'm like 'Oh yes!'" recalled Watson.
