Wish is the Apple of Techie Teen’s Eye

ALMONT, Mich. (August 2021): Seth’s dizzy spells were so debilitating that he could barely get out of bed for two years. It’s not what he expected his teen life to be. He’s homeschooled, and spends most of his free time in his room on electronics, watching science fiction shows, and playing video games. Seth is captivated by Apple’s innovative technologies, and admires all their latest products. It’s his favorite store. Kids Wish Network made his dream come true, surprising him with a generous Apple gift card loaded with spending money to level up his electronic playing field. It’ll be a game changer shopping all their newest models! 

Before Seth’s diagnosis, he was constantly getting sick. But the day he took a turn for the worse was a day his mom will always remember. Seth was dry heaving and took on a greyish cast. He later fainted, and wound up in the children’s ICU in critical condition where he was hospitalized for several days. Testing revealed Addison’s disease. Over the years his health has been unstable, and he also struggles with an additional illness. Being housebound for the past few years, his wish will give him something special to uplift his spirits and keep him entertained at home. 

Many Thanks

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