Brennan, 13 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Brennan is a kind and curious kid in care who sees the world in his own special way. He is on the autism spectrum and has a great talent for noticing patterns and details. He can focus quietly on his interests for a long time. One of his favorite activities is working on puzzles, which he finds both calming and exciting. While he enjoys spending time alone, he becomes very enthusiastic when talking about things he loves. He has a gentle and thoughtful nature, and his shyness hides his brilliant mind. With a strong memory, he can remember intricate details that make his observations unique. Whether he’s solving a tough puzzle or learning something new, Brennan shows patience, focus, and determination. His ability to see the little things that others often miss is what makes him special.

Brennan struggles to calm down on his own. A weighted blanket would help calm his nerves. This gift would not only assist Brennan in getting a good night's sleep but also serve as a reminder that he is supported.
