Jon, 14 years old

Wish submitted by:

Jon is a shy individual who enjoys spending time alone. Recently, he was placed in a foster home with many other children. Jon is learning how to navigate interactions with his peers. He has a low IQ and has suffered a traumatic brain injury, which makes communication challenging for him. Jon has a strong passion for electronics and loves playing video games. This activity helps him relax and unwind. He is also becoming more self-aware and has a number of medical and therapeutic appointments scheduled each week. Despite his challenges, Jon is very affectionate and desires to be liked by others. He also enjoys helping with chores and assisting younger children.

Jacob experiences anxiety during doctor visits and therapy sessions, and since he lives in a remote area, having a Nintendo Switch will help him cope better during these weekly trips.
