Local child with kidney cancer gets to meet Mickey Mouse

A six-year-old from Lompoc is one step closer to getting his biggest wish granted.

A special Wish Presentation Party was held Saturday in Lompoc for Nathan Mendoza.

Nathan has a Wilm's Tumor, which is a type of kidney cancer that mostly occurs in children.

To make things a little easier for him and his family, the Make-A-Wish Foundation of the Tri-Counties is sending him to Disneyland.

"He loves Mickey Mouse. He loves every single character. He's been wanting to go for a while now, but we just haven't been able to," said Naomi Cordero, Nathan's mom.

Nathan and his family head to Disneyland on Monday.

Another Wish Granting party is set Sunday for a local teenager with leukemia.
