We're just waiting for Cuauhtemoc to finish up with practice. He will be here shortly!

Lisa from Chicago

What touched you the most about this experience?

Cuauhtemoc Blanco

  (2:26 PM)

It was really important to me because I could give him a little bit of happiness and satisfaction in this hard time. It was a person that had a hard operation.

  (2:26 PM)

A la pregunta de Lisa, me ha traido mucha satisfacciones porque luego de una opercion fuerte, el exito me ha motivado

Was it sad meeting someone that is sick?

Cuauhtemoc Blanco

Do you expect more big-name MLS players will get invovled with My Wish?

Cuauhtemoc Blanco

  (2:28 PM)

I don't know, but I think they will do it because they want to make a difference and not because they are obligated to do it.

Cuauhtemoc Blanco

  (2:28 PM)

No lo se, Esto se hace porque te nace, no se hace por sentirse obligado

Yes, it's something that I've done a lot, but it's not public. I feel it's something important and is special. I go to hospitals to meet with the kids there.
