There’s nothing like making a child’s wish come true. For children fighting a critical illness, those wishes are a gift of hope that can help give them the strength to continue their fight. Through tears and hugs, the Make-A-Wish room where wishes are planned and granted was dedicated to the memory of a Wish Kid.  ... “After two days in the hospital, we were able to bring our precious boy home. ...” It’s a situation no family prepares for after bringing their newborn home. ... Seth was placed on hospice and his family focused on letting him live out his best life. That’s when make a wish became part of his story. “They were pure magic from the moment we met them, after sitting down to meet and learn about Seth, we discussed possible wish ideas.” That meeting was done in the Wish Room. ... “Our Wish Room is where Wish Kids come in to do their discovery visits, to talk about their wish to plan. And so it’s a really fun space just for kids to come in, forget about their diagnosis for a while and dream big,” said Sara Lister, president & CEO of Make-A-Wish New Mexico.
