“I wish to see snow for the first time!”
This is the wish of Mohamed (8) who lives with a rare blood disorder. When asked what his wish was, he responded without hesitation, “I want to go to Bosnia and see snow. I’ve always dreamed of building a snowman and having a snowball fight with my family.”
It was with the support of people like you that his wish came true. Allowing him to forget about illness and simply be a child, lost in the magic of a winter wonderland.
