The Make-A-Wish Foundation announced that Miles, now in fifth grade, enjoys life as "a typical kid" and has seen reduced signs of the blood cancer each year since he donned the cape and cowl in 2013.
After Miles, who was diagnosed with the life-threatening illness at age 1, told the foundation that he wanted to
be Batman, the entire Bay Area became swept up in making the then-5-year-old's wish come true.
