Jonas Vaitekunas, a 15-year-old from Dagenham, copes with his leukaemia diagnosis through music, participating in the Sunshine Choir. Together, they recorded the Rainbow single, aimed at helping seriously ill children. The song, co-written by choir members, reflects their individual stories and collective experiences with illness. The initiative, supported by Rays of Sunshine charity, not only grants wishes but also helps young singers find joy and community through music, reducing feelings of isolation. This year, Jonas's wish to visit Disneyland was fulfilled through the charity's support.
Jonas expressed how much he enjoyed singing with friends in the choir, sharing positive experiences despite living with serious health challenges.
Jenny Porter highlighted that everyone's personal story was woven into the song's lyrics, capturing the choir's emotional journey.
