Luke Combs fulfills cancer-stricken boy’s ‘secret wish’ in heartwarming video.
Eight-Year-Old Boy Battling Cancer Gets His ‘Secret Wish’ Granted by Luke Combs
Cooper Massengill, an eight-year-old boy who has been fighting leukemia since the age of three, had a dream to sing with his favorite country singer, Luke Combs.
When the children’s charity Make-A-Wish heard about Cooper’s wish, they knew they had to make it happen.
“Cooper’s wish was to meet Luke Combs. He had no idea that he was going to go on stage,” said Sean Holleran, CEO of Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
On Saturday, during Combs’ concert at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts, the country star invited Cooper to join him on stage to sing the chorus of “Fast Car.”
In a now-viral video, Combs can be seen introducing a visibly shocked Cooper and giving him a high five.

In an interview with WBZ-TV, Cooper described the moment as he walked up on stage, with everyone shouting his name. “It felt great,” he said.
Cooper expressed his gratitude for the once-in-a-lifetime experience, reminding everyone to be grateful for their wishes. “Everybody doesn’t get a wish, and be grateful if you get a wish,” he said.
Cooper’s parents were also moved by his singing debut. “It was great to see him get the wish he wanted after going through everything,” said Travis Massengill, Cooper’s father.
Melissa Massengill, Cooper’s mother, added, “I was just amazed they could organize all that for him. They really came through for him and made his wish come true.”
