Crystal is truly one of a kind. As an awesome big sister with a deep love for animals, she aspires to become a veterinarian. In September 2024, her life changed dramatically when she and her dad narrowly escaped a devastating fire that claimed two loved ones. Though they suffered minor burns, Crystal now faces sleepless nights and PTSD, having lost many personal belongings and spent weeks without a stable home. Recently, she reunited with her mom, who is recovering from brain surgery and has limited income. Together, they care for Crystal’s younger half-sibling and their cherished six-year-old dog. Despite the challenges, Crystal finds joy in playing with her dog, going to the movies, and making jewelry. Her favorite color is blue, and she has a special fondness for Hello Kitty. Through it all, Crystal’s resilience and spirit shine brightly, reflecting her strength and compassion.

Crystal has been experiencing some days of isolation, feeling overwhelmed, and caught in a cycle of overthinking about the challenges she currently faces. She wants and deserves a special day to break free from her routine and focus on self-care. This outing has the potential to restore the bubbly and vibrant Crystal that so many people cherish. A trip to Bath and Body Works would be the perfect opportunity for her to select lovely lotions, refreshing body washes, bath balls, nourishing lip balms, and delightful body sprays that will keep her feeling and smelling fantastic. Right now, a little pampering would serve to uplift her spirits and remind her of how valued she truly is.
