Caesar's Life Journey

Caesar is a remarkable young violinist. Born in August 2008 in Providence, RI, he was diagnosed with Sickle Cell Anemia, a genetic blood disorder, at birth, and has endured 3 strokes and many pain crises starting at the age of 4 due to SCD.

Caesar started playing the violin at the age of 2 1/2 years old through the Suzuki Method. Though, his love and appreciation for music, specific classical, go back to a very young age. When he was 9 months old his father bought him a little book with a keyboard and he tried to match some notes with it. Since birth he always listen to classical music, specially to sleep. Another thing he always loved to do since very young age was to sit with his father and watch Classical Concerts played by some of the greatest violinists and pianists to date.

Because of his illness, Caesar has been through a lot. The last stroke he suffered left him in a very deep situation. He had to relearn how to sit on his own, stand up, walk and even play his violin. And because of this disorder he had to go through many intensive medical treatments and care.

Thank God,  in Sep. 2021, Caesar got CURED. He underwent a Stem Cell Transplant at the NIH. His younger sister was his donor. He has been doing great!

Caesar has continued his violin education and has also shown interest in composing. He still practicing hard and combining his love to play with his passion of composing. His dream is to be able to go to a Music Conservatoir to better his education.

Unfortunately, Caesar’s family has been hit with the sudden passing of his father (Jan.2025), his greater helper and support with everything to date. Life has been a big rollercoaster as they try to keep things going without their base.

Luckily, Caesar’s father was able to publish the memoir he wrote and worked diligently for many years about Caesar’s journey from being born with Sickle Cell Anemia from being cured. The book is very inspiring and is accompanied by a CD recorded by Caesar. The eBook version is available on the website shop page and the printed version can be purchased on Amazon (link also available on the website shop page).
