Carola had always been a cheerful girl who excelled at school and also in sports. But everything changed when she was 14 years old and she was diagnosed with a terrible genetic disease, which began to progress, taking away her physical and mental energy day after day. Overwhelmed with worry for her daughter, Carola’s mum contacted Make-A-Wish, telling us, “I have little time left to make my child’s wish come true. I would like to see her happy at least for one day.”
Carola initially didn’t want a wish, telling her mum she only wished for a cure. But when our volunteers got to know her, they discovered that Carola and her friends had always wanted to go on a campervan trip. Carola wanted to experience the freedom, the sensations, the pleasure of a trip to clear her mind and to share this experience with her loved ones; a journey to regain even a little of the normal adolescence that the disease had stolen from her. Will you help more children, just like Carola?
