Jessica's Ballet Wish

Here is 3 year old Jessica at her 1st Ballet Recital on May 16th. It was a wonderful experience for her. Ashley Tally from Washington Trust Bank had this to say. "Seeing Jessica up on stage in her gorgeous costume performing for her first time was amazing, truly a tear jerking proud moment for me. I'm honored to have been made a part of granting her ballet wish. She's a natural performer and has grown and developed so much since her first day of lessons just a few months ago. She is a beautiful, loving, and talented girl and I look forward to watching her perform many times in the future.

Elanor's Bedroom Makeover

Elanor has a chromosome disorder called Trisomy 18. Last summer her Wish was a bedroom makeover. The room was transpired by her favorite character ELMO and a underwater experience. Len from Starscapes covered her ceiling with magical stars. In April she received a trach and has been doing well. On December 6th Elanor and her family attended Sesame Street Live at the Idaho Center! This was truly a day never to be forgotten for her.

Jenna's Best Buy Shopping Spree

Best Buy was excellent to Jenna in January as she roamed the aisles on her shopping spree. She received a I-Pod, laptop, Nintendo DS, games and movies. The new "Toys" helped her as her Cancer returned after a year.

Andrew's Wishes

Andrew was stuck by a fast growing Osteo-Sarcoma Tumor in his pelvic bone. The tumor was so large and his left leg had to be sacrificed but, that has not stopped Andrew. He is learning how to live with one leg and making all the adjustments needed. Six weeks after surgery he was hunting and riding his four-wheeler. Andrew just graduated from High School! He is amazing.

In January Andrew went backstage to meet Rodney Adkins in Concert at the Idaho Center. Rodney's song "If your going thru hell" was an inspiration to Andrew. Rodney dedicated that song to Andrew that night of the concert.

Mr. Makeover, Jim Meadows and Trading Spaces, Carrianne Recla donated their time and materials and created a Idaho Modern theme room for Andrew. They surprised him on one of his last days of Chemotherapy to a day of fun with his Mom and brother. The limo arrived and transported them to Goodwood for lunch then to a movie. At the same time Jim and Carrianne were transforming his room. The project took most of the day! When they arrived back to their house the project was complete with a flat screen, autographed football from BSU, a new bed, shelves and much more. He loved it!

Andrew recently graduated from High School. Watch more about his touching story.
