Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos, better known by his stage name Criss Angel, has been recognized for pulling off numerous tricks and escaping many, many obstacles as a magician (yes, he pulled that one major stunt in Times Square with that water torture cell), although it seems he has found his match when it comes to the obstacles he has faced as a dad. 

The renowned magician married Shaunyl Benson back in 2015 and they had two beautiful children together: Johnny Crisstopher Sarantakos and Xristos Yanni Sarantakos. Johnny is the eldest and loves spending quality time with his dad. However, he is also the sickest and the father-son duo have been spending much time in the hospital. 

Johnny was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia back in 2016 at the tender age of two. 

Luckily, he has his rockstar dad Criss as his number 1 fan and biggest supporter!

Swipe through the gallery to see the magician share some of the sweetest moments with his son.
