According to his parents, before Junrey was born, his family was poor and down on their luck. But after his birth, they saw a reversal of fortune, with Junrey’s father Reynaldo, 37, getting a job that enabled him to look after his family. "Junrey is our lucky charm," Reynaldo says.
Junrey loves watching TV with war films being his favourite viewing also his favourite food is pork but he can eat about two (normal size) fingers' worth at a meal, with a small helping of rice.His name is a combination of June, for his birthday, and his father's name, Reynaldo. It also means "Little King", as in junior and Rey, which is Spanish for king.
Junrey has to stay at home with his mum Concepcion, while his sisters Jaycel (13), Jeanritch (6) and 11-year-old brother Jay-art go to school. Concepcion (35) says: "He needs my care every minute of every day. Junrey can only walk with some help and he can't stand for too long because he's in too much pain.
