Wish Kid to Have Wildly Fun Florida Adventures

NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y. (March 2023): Jaxon has a curious nature and spends much of his free time watching National Geographic videos to learn all he can about reptiles and other fascinating creatures. With Jaxon’s wish coming true, he’ll now have his own wildy fun adventures seeing some of his favorite animals and experiencing the magic of Orlando! Kids Wish Network is flying Jaxon’s family to Florida for a much-needed break from the realities of his many conditions.

His exciting trip includes a visit to Reptile World Serpentarium, where he’ll get to see reptiles, birds, and a variety of venomous snakes face-to-face, merely separated by glass. It will be amazing for Jaxon to be surrounded by the wildlife he’s learned so much about, and that captivates his heart. Tickets are courtesy of the attraction.

He’ll also be going to Disney World! Kids Wish Network facilitated a 3-day Park Hopper pass so his family can experience all the Disney parks or multiple days at a favorite one. Their fun will continue at Universal Orlando, which provided 2-day tickets so they’re able to explore both Universal and Islands of Adventure theme parks. Kids Wish Network additionally gave Jaxon’s family an Airbnb gift card to choose from and enjoy their ultimate accommodations during his special getaway. Jaxon has a congenital chromosomal abnormality, Arnold-Chiari malformation, and renal disease. He’s been through multiple therapies and recently underwent his first kidney surgery. Since birth, Jaxon’s life has been an ongoing series of medical appointments and procedures, and he continues to struggle with the complications of his illnesses.

Many Thanks
