CHICAGO (CBS) -- Nine-year-old Cyrus might look like just your average kid from Portage Park - but he's really a superhero.
Cyrus is battling cystic fibrosis, a life-threatening lung disorder. But he's not letting that stop him from taking down the bad guys.

The ceremony took place at Navy Pier. Mind's Eye even got his superhero logo displayed on the Centennial Ferris Wheel.
