A trip to New York City renewed L.A.’s motivation to thrive in the face of a gastrointestinal disorder. Before leaving for her trip, L.A. and her family had a disco-themed send-off party and photoshoot with family and friends. They spent the trip visiting an art museum, attending a basketball game, and going backstage to meet a Broadway cast. “[Make-A-Wish] creates a beautiful experience that can’t be bought. It gives hope to the kids and hope to the family.”– Laura, L.A.’s mom ⭐️ It’s #mentalhealthawarenessmonth.

Judah’s unique and plow-erful wish has given him a renewed sense of self, and the belief in a brighter future. His parents, Jennie and Ron, adopted him when he was 13 years old. “He'd been home a couple years [when he received his wish], but he'd still never talked in future words, or in future sense,” Jennie said. His mental health improved immensely when Judah realized he couldwish for something to help him cultivate the land 👨🌾, growing vegetables 🥕, and preparing meals 🥙 from farm to table. “The tractor was the very first thing that he asked for, planned for, that really is future-driven,” Jennie shared. “It's the first time he said, well, I'll still be here in six months, or I'll be here next year.” Judah’s dad, Ron, added, “You always want your children to have hope.” ⭐️ Join us in recognizing #mentalhealthawarenessmonth and the impact of wish on the mental and emotional well-being of kids who are fighting critical illnesses.
