Four-year-old Omar Harooni doesn't let weekly trips to the hospital stop him.
The California boy was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called beta thalassemia when he was just 6 months old, according to KOVR. The disorder leads to low levels of oxygen in the body, thanks to a reduced amount of hemoglobin.
To take his mind off things, Omar recently became a sheriff's deputy for a day with the help of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
He donned a custom uniform and got his very own set of wheels.
"It's a good feeling," said Deputy Christopher Guerra with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department. "I know that he's happy inside even though he's a shy kid.
"I was a shy kid too, so I know how it is," he added.
