Javi is a typical energetic 5-year-old who has had to face an extensive medical journey. Javi was diagnosed with a nervous system disorder at a very young age. He has to overcome many obstacles with his diagnosis and continues to work through them every day.
When Javi was referred to Make-A-Wish Iowa, we knew we wanted to try to help lift the burden that weighs so heavily on this family’s shoulders. Javi and his family wanted a space where they could relax and enjoy an oasis away from everything going on around them. With the help of the Make-A-Wish volunteers and staff, we were able ot create a space for Javi to relax and just be a kid. He enjoys playing in the hot tub jets and hanging out with his siblings. As you can see from the pictures, the smile on Javi’s face says it all.
“He loves the hot tub and especially those waterfall jets! We are hoping to turn down the heat and make it more of a pool so he can enjoy it during these hot months as well! Thank you so much for everything you have done for Javi. He is such a lucky and blessed little guy.”
