Wish submitted by:

Bryce, who lost his mother several years ago and has no father, navigates life with a big heart. Despite his losses, he finds joy in gaming and fishing, which serve as his favorite pastimes. Bryce lives with his grandparents and loves the time he spends with his cousins, drawing strength and happiness from these family connections. His resilience and warmth are evident in his interactions with others. Bryce's love for gaming and fishing offers him a sense of normalcy and escape, enriching his life with moments of fun and tranquility.

Bryce had been dreaming of a new gaming system for months. His grandmother, who lovingly raised him due to his parents' substance abuse, wanted nothing more than to make it happen for his birthday, which falls on Christmas Day. Unfortunately, due to the strain of bills and everyday necessities, she couldn't afford it, despite her best efforts. Bryce, however, with his big heart, did not complain and expressed gratitude for the gifts he did receive. Still, there was a quiet hope within him that someday his birthday wish might come true.
