A comfy blanket for Lyn to use while she recovers from surgery

Posted Dec 10, 2024
Lyn was born with a rare gene mutation that leads to uncontrollable spasms throughout her body, placing immense strain on her heart. Despite the challenges she faces daily, she has discovered a newfound passion for boba tea—a delightful, sweet indulgence that brings her joy after a long day filled with doctor visits and medical consultations. With an important surgery on the horizon, Lyn is eager to find comfort in her favorite beverage, envisioning a cozy, warm blanket adorned with vibrant illustrations of boba cups, each representing her love for this tasty treat and the moments of solace it brings her.

Lyn is 11 years old and lives in PA

Lyn is shy when you first meet her, but once she gets to know you and feels safe, she transforms like a beautiful butterfly emerging from a cocoon. Her smile lights up the whole room, and you can’t help but smile back. Her favorite color is green, and her favorite food is pizza. Foster care was challenging for her at the beginning, but now, with a loving and patient family that adores her, she is growing happy and healthy. She was born with a gene mutation that causes her body to have uncontrollable spasms. This has led to many doctor appointments, including visits to a specialist at Delaware Children’s Hospital, but she is on a good regimen of medications that help manage her condition. Lyn loves being outside and will cry if you make her come in. While she doesn’t like long car rides, she enjoys riding the bus to school.
