Name: Brandon
Age: 17
State: California

Brandon is a happy and outgoing teen who loves animals. He enjoys going to the zoo and likes trains. Some of his favorite movies are “Jurassic Park” and “Godzilla,” and he is a big fan of watching “Animal Planet” and “Sponge Bob Square Pants.” He likes the color blue and his favorite toy is his stuffed giraffe. Brandon enjoys watching basketball and football, and he collects rocks, stones and toy giraffes.

When Brandon was almost 2-years-old, he was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and a seizure disorder. CP is an illness in which the brain does not communicate with the muscles; symptoms include tight muscles, balance issues, poor coordination, and a delay in developmental skills such as walking and sitting. Brandon has about two or three seizures each day, and also wears braces to help him walk. He will soon have to be in a wheelchair for daily mobility. He also has a problem with his platelets – a sticky substance which clots blood to stop bleeding – where their number drops so low that he has to be hospitalized.

When Brandon was asked what his number one wish would be, he said that he wanted to visit Disney World in Florida. Get ready to have an awesome time at the happiest place on Earth, Brandon, because you are getting your wish!
