The introduction of the wish journey during week 1 of Gavin’s chemotherapy was an a-ha moment for wish mom Shannon King. This “strategy of hope” was apparent to her as he embarked on his treatment journey, reimagining his wish multiple times over and eventually choosing his very own man cave. Now a member of our board of directors, Shannon’s insight into the empowering impact a wish can have on a child lends itself to the perspective necessary to keep the mission moving forward.
