A 5 year-old boy in Ionia continues his battle with DIPG, a rare form of terminal brain cancer. Peyton Dennis is fighting hard and on Saturday a group of heroes showed their support with a holiday surprise. The League of Enchantment is a non-profit organization made up of volunteers who dress-up like superheroes and other characters, making visits to kids across the state. Alongside local police officers, medics and firefighters, the group made a grand entrance to greet Peyton at his home. Several dozen people brought Peyton smiles, gifts and a lot of Christmas cheer. Peyton’s mom Katie Dennis says the gesture came at a time when Peyton and their family need it most.
