Journey of a Wish - James' wish to go to Legoland

Each year, more than 800 children in our state are diagnosed with critical illnesses, and many of them are waiting for a wish—a dream that can bring hope during some of the darkest times. To help in understanding the impact of a wish, we invite you to join us on the journey of James, one of our incredible wish kids. This is James’ full Journey of a wish, from his diagnosis and hospital stays to the wish reveal and the joy it brought his family, medical team, and community. This series, Journey of a Wish, highlights the life-changing power of a wish for not just the child, but everyone involved.

A wish gives a child with a critical illness the opportunity to imagine and explore possibilities. Give hope to more than 800 Michigan wish kids waiting for their wish.
