Teen’s Wish Can Get Him a Pro

Electronics Help Lift Wish Kids Spirit

VINCENNES, Ind. (November 2020): Collin was suffering from severe abdominal pains and losing a lot of weight. After undergoing upper and lower endoscopies, he was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, a condition that causes chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. It’s also been difficult for Collin having to adjust to ongoing IV infusions, medications, and new dietary restrictions. Being on electronics helps take his mind off of his condition, and he was really hoping for a MacBook Pro. Kids Wish Network, a children’s charity that grants wishes for kids with life-threatening illnesses, purchased Collin a generous Best Buy gift card so he could have fun shopping the upcoming holiday deals for the Pro and accessories that are perfect for his needs. 

“We’re so happy we could boost Collin’s spirits, and fill his holiday season with extra cheer,” said his Wish Coordinator Kim Kreiner.
