Ashley, 35 years old

Wish submitted by:

Ashley was born to parents who both had mental health disorders and developmental delays. When she was 14 her father was diagnosed with a terminal brain disease and passed away only eight months later. Her mother was unable to care for her and her sister and they ended up in foster care. Living in a group home she graduated from high school and went on to college where she graduated with her degree in Psychology. She has done a lot with her life, including joining the military, getting married, and having beautiful children of her own. She is currently working in hospice to help others through their grief. She received her Master's in Social work in May 2022. and hopes to advocate for children in foster care, as her team advocated for her.

Ashley is always doing for others with a smile on her face. She would love to treat herself to a delicious cup of coffee from Starbucks. Ashley really enjoys the holidays and gets in the Christmas spirit. A warm cup in her hands will make it that much sweeter!
