Joey Papa

A year ago last October, Joey Papa and his wife Nikki lost a child, Canaan. For the entirety of her brief life, Canaan, though never formally diagnosed, dealt with innumerable medical complexities and was what one might describe as a child with “special needs.” In their grief, filmmaker Joey and his wife Nikki felt that Canaan had handed them a baton and that it was their turn to spread the word about their special daughter.
