"This was a much anticipated arrival for this young man, he did not know if it would be granted and was just the sweetest and most patient guy while he waited. His caregiver would call to check in just to see if it had been granted and the day I could say yes, the sound of excitement in the background was so heartwarming. He is a beautiful soul and so very appreciative and deserving. I can say, I help families with a lot of wishes and this one really pulled at the ol' heartstrings just because of how overjoyed and emotional he was to have this dream gift. Thank you for making that possible. "
