Maylee's Wish Story
5-year-old Maylee is a vibrant and joyful child who loves many things, but art, swimming, and donuts are at the top of the list! She enjoys painting, drawing, sculpting clay, and making secret potions. When she's not doing art projects, she likes to snuggle and watch Disney movies.
While her creative interests and love for art, Disney and donuts bring joy to Maylee, this 5-year-old from Butte, MT battles a respiratory disorder that causes her to have various health issues and many difficult days.
Maylee and her family are often required to travel for treatments, staying overnight at hotels. She isn’t able to swim in the big pools due to her age, so she takes full advantage of the smaller hot tubs. Maylee's mom, Kylah said, "The hot tubs bring her so much joy. She loves when the jets are on, because they make bubbles!"
Due to her illness, Maylee qualified to receive a wish through Make-A-Wish South Dakota & Montana. With her love for swimming and bubbles, Maylee determined that she would love to have a hot tub of her own. Her wish to have a hot tub wouldn't be complete without donut googles!
The hot tub and donut goggles were delivered to Maylee's house on Friday, March 5th for a surprise wish reveal. She was overjoyed when she walked into her backyard and spotted her brand new hot tub. Maylee and her two sisters jumped with excitement and quickly ran into the house to change into swimsuits.
The sisters jumped into the warm water and splashed around in the bubbles. Wish mom Kylah stood nearby, emotional yet full of joy. She explained, "She's finally having a good day. It's finally a great day [for Maylee]."
This wish was made possible by Mountain Hot Tub of Butte and Bozeman who donated and installed the tub. Owner Kelly King attended the wish reveal and said about the experience, "What a great opportunity to make a girl's day. It's a great feeling!"
