Storm, 9 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Storm came into foster care after her adoptive home did not work out. She has moved to other states and has been in and out of foster care for several years. Storm has remained a happy, outgoing, and determined child throughout this journey. She has continued to have good grades in school and tries her best to get along with others. Storm loves to play outside, read books, and do artwork. She is always willing to lend a helping hand and is a great addition to her foster family.

Storm struggles with her anger and her ability to control her body when it escalates. She will often throw items or hit and kick others. Her foster family has found that tight hugs and feeling compression help Storm calm down quickly. Storm has asked for a weighted blanket so she can give herself a tight hug and feel calm quickly.
