Marco, 8 years old

Wish submitted by:

Marco is an incredible boy who brings joy to everyone around him with his loving nature. Though he often struggles with social interactions due to autism, he continuously makes an effort to express his feelings and enjoy time with others. Marco has a deep love for dinosaurs and is always eager to explore everything he can get his hands on. His imaginative spirit shines brightly, especially since arriving at the shelter, where he has remained in good spirits. While he's facing challenges in adjusting to a new routine, his determination and positive attitude shine through as he tries his best to adapt.

Marco has some difficulty getting comfortable at bedtime. At home, he had a Squishmallow that he would hold tight to help him sleep. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to grab it before the removal. Marco is autistic, and he loves the way he can squeeze his Squishmallow and how soft it feels. Receiving a new one would help him get the rest he needs and make him feel more at home.
