DEFIANCE, Ohio (March 2022): Beckett is an explorer at heart with visions of picturesque destinations that he hopes to venture to. He loves tropical beaches, and also has a curiosity to experience its polar opposite, the glaciers and snow-capped mountains of Alaska. Now he gets to choose!

Beckett received a video call from his wish coordinator and Wish Kid Ambassador, Brian, who previously had his own dream come true. They were so excited to reveal his fabulous wish in a festive way. KidsWish Network sent Beckett a suitcase packed with fun and a big surprise. The stuffed animal shark in the luggage wasn’t just a pillow to cuddle with, it had something special tucked inside. “You have gift cards for you and your whole family to go on a cruise,” Brian joyfully shared. Beckett’s mouth gaped open in amazement, he was so surprised. He has something very special to look forward to, and will soon be anchors away. Kids Wish Network can’t wait to find out if he’ll be cruising to — palm trees or glaciers. “We appreciate this very much. Thank you so much,” said his dad Rodney. His family is so grateful for Beckett’s upcoming adventure.

Beckett has undergone multiple surgeries for his severe cervical thoracic kyphosis with myelopathy. He also has Larsen Syndrome. Beckett utilizes a wheelchair for mobility.

Many Thanks

Kids Wish Network could not have provided this wish to Beckett without the help of the many supporters who believe in making wishes come true for kids who need hope.
