In November of 2020 at the age of 15, Autumn found out she would need a kidney transplant. After a successful surgery, it was time for this adventurous teen to celebrate. She knew that she wanted to travel, but the question was where should she go? After being told that the sky was the limit, she thought about going to Florida, Africa, and even Australia. Her final decision was to take a relaxing trip to Honolulu, Hawaii. With leis around their necks, Autumn and her family touched down on the beautiful island of Oahu and began their experience of a lifetime.
“It was absolutely amazing! So grateful to make a wish for that experience! Autumn and Brenna loved the shark cage experience!”

However, this bold girl was not going to settle for just lying on the beach. One of her favorite parts of the trip was the shark cage experience. Make-A-Wish Iowa was so happy to get to celebrate her successful medical journey.
