First playdate since leaving hospital

The two three-year-olds identified as Mack Porter and Payson Altice, met at a cancer treatment centre, Phoenix Children's Hospital and the two formed an immediate bond.

While doing an interview with TODAY SHOW, Mack's mother explained that his son would always ask when he will be allowed to play with his new friend each morning he woke up.

"Every morning, his first question was, ’When can I play with Payson?’” said Dani Porter.

The two families live close to each other, and they organised a playdate to ensure that the two buddies reunite and spend time together.

Mack showed up carrying a bouquet for his friend, and as soon as he handed it over to her, the two hugged before holding hands and walking away.

Here is a video showing the two together.
