RIVERSIDE, Calif.
A 22-year-old man battling brain cancer has been reunited with his biggest supporter, his dog Maiden, who had gone missing in Riverside. Sebastian Delgado was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in the past year, and his 10-month-old pit bull has helped him emotionally to get through the ordeal. But on Saturday, the dog found an open gate at the Riverside home of family friends and wandered off near Jefferson Street and Magnolia Avenue. After contacting Eyewitness News with #ABC7Eyewitness and making a public plea for help, Maiden was found.
Doctors say Delgado's tumor will most likely come back, as will chemotherapy and possibly more brain surgery, so he's glad he can have Maiden by his side.
Delgado posted on Instagram that Maiden was found by a woman, who took care of Maiden while she searched for the owner.
