A Brazilian lawyer who gained internet fame for his resemblance to actor Christopher Reeve brought moments of happiness to sick children at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra while dressed as Superman. Leonardo Muylaert visited the cancer ward where young patients greeted him with excitement, many smiling for the first time in weeks, according to medical staff. Regina Awuku said her five-year-old son, battling leukemia, woke up energized after seeing the costumed visitor.

Muylaert became an online sensation after a video from a 2022 comic convention in São Paulo went viral on social media. He travels globally without compensation to hospitals, schools and charitable organizations as a symbol of hope. During his weeklong maiden visit to Ghana, he also joined amputee children at a prosthetics workshop for a football match.

Akua Sarpong from Lifeline for Childhood Cancer Ghana noted that treatment patients who had been listless sat upright during the encounter. The visitor emphasized that anyone can make a difference through small gestures of compassion before returning to Brazil.
