Taylor, 24 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Taylor is a remarkable young mom who recently moved into a new neighborhood with her son, receiving housing assistance to help with rent after enduring a harrowing experience with her child's father, who brutally abused her. While pregnant, she faced a horrific attack where she was stabbed multiple times, resulting in a long hospital stay, but against all odds, both she and her baby survived. With her abuser now imprisoned, Taylor grapples with the aftermath of her trauma, including PTSD, social anxiety, insomnia, and panic attacks, which have hindered her employment for the past two years as she applies for disability benefits. Determined to heal, she regularly attends group and individual therapy sessions, though she still struggles with focus and anxiety that have affected her job performance. In her free time, Taylor finds joy in playing video games, listening to music, watching movies, and cherishing moments with her son, reflecting resilience and strength as she embodies hope for a brighter future.

Recently, Taylor's son expressed his interest in a Spider-Man tool bench. This would not only ignite his imagination but also offer a fun way for him to engage in creative play. The set would bring joy to his room and create a positive atmosphere that supports their healing process, inspiring creativity and contributing to his emotional well-being.
