Wishes can be so impactful for critically ill Kiwi kids - like Libby.
A wish can be a sparkle of joy for a child facing a long, medical journey.
Mason was diagnosed with kidney cancer at 10 months old. Now seven, he has spent most of his life in hospital, undergoing countless treatments and surgeries.
Mason was very decisive and enthusiastic about his wish – in fact, when it came to choosing his wish, he shouted it over the phone. He was certain that he wanted a PlayStation 5, virtual reality headset, and a TV.
All throughout his time in hospital, Mason’s wish gave him something to look forward to, while he was recovering from his painful treatments.
It also gave him the knowledge that even if he got sick again, he’d still be able to connect with his friends and family through online gaming.
Mason’s wish came true the day he returned home from hospital, after spending over 700 days there.
Make more wishes like Mason’s come true by becoming a Make-A-Wish NZ regular giver. Just $25 a month is all it takes to bring a sparkle of joy and magic to a Kiwi child facing a dark and long health journey.
Archer has always dreamed of having a sausage dog. His mum Brooke says Archer would often wish upon dandelions. “When I asked him what he wished for, he said a sausage dog.”
Archer’s wish came true in October 2023, when he received his wonderful sausage dog – named Jeb. After enduring brutal chemotherapy treatments for leukaemia, Jeb brought a lot of joy to Archer and his family.
Brooke explains how meaningful Archer’s wish was:
“During his treatment there was a long period of time where he couldn’t walk at all and had nothing in him to be able to even try and force a smile... I used to imagine him running and laughing again and it felt almost unreachable at times. And now here he is doing those things, with his own special companion.”
