Jayden Barber has been fighting leukemia for over 2 years, which is half of his 4-year-old life. When “Batman” star Christian Bale found out, he did the right thing. He flew Barber and his family out to Disneyland for a private lunch with him and his own family. Barber and Bale and families had lunch at the famed Disneyland’s Club 33 last week and it was a day Jayden will remember forever.
“Finally can share!!! Christian sent us to LA and we had lunch at Disney club 33 on wed,” Barber’s mother wrote with a picture of the two on her Lighting the Batsignal for Jayden Facebook page. “He and his family were so awesome and down to earth!!!”
Charlene Barber shared the family’s experience in detail on the facebook page, gushing over how wonderful Christian Bale and his family was and how down to Earth they seemed. Christian Bale is getting a lot of positive attention lately, he also visited Colorado and visited some of the shooting victims after the Dark Knight Rises tragedy.
On whether Jayden got starstruck around Batman? Charlene shared, “The entire interaction was like old friends having lunch. Jayden did not get star struck but was well aware of who we were with!”
“They talked movies and super Heros an he was genuinely happy to hear about everything Jayden wanted to tell him. Christian, his wife and daughter are three of the most beautiful people we have ever met! Christian made these arrangements for us personally and ensured we were treated like royalty. I don’t have even one negative thing to say about them. I can tell you that they were just as impressed w Jayden as Jayden was w them :)” [sic]
Jayden had been undergoing chemotherapy for bone cancer for two years and then it turned into MDS leukemia last year. The good news is that Jayden is now in remission and able to celebrate this with a story of worthy of Disney’s fairy tales.
