Hero Lives Challenged Life Bravely and Joyfully
Despite all the ongoing medical challenges that Zoey has endured since she was a toddler, she keeps a positive attitude and is accepting of what she needs to do for her health. She faces all of her challenges head-on, and bravely undergoes medical procedures while consistently being pleasant to hospital staff. Zoey doesn’t let her health struggles get in her way and chooses to live her life filled with joy, dancing, playing, and laughing often. She was nominated by Megan DiTore, her Child Life Specialist at Virtua Voorhees Hospital.“She is the bravest little girl I’ve ever known,” said DiTore. “She is the happiest little warrior and an example to me to enjoy every moment and is personally my hero.”Kids Wish Network is thrilled to reward Zoey as a Hero of the Month.
Kids Wish Network has been making dreams come true for children since 1997. We are dedicated to infusing hope, creating happy memories, and improving the quality of life for children experiencing life-altering situations. We started with the single purpose of granting wishes to children suffering from life-threatening conditions but have since created additional programs to benefit kids nationwide, including Hero of the Month, Project Toy Drop, Holiday of Hope Gift Banks, and A Child Forever Funeral Assistance.
