Ariel, 15 years old, PA

Wish submitted by:

Ariel is an extraordinary person who has faced significant challenges from an early age. Her mother passed away during the COVID-19 pandemic, leaving Ariel and her siblings to live with their father, who was both mentally and physically abusive. Ariel is living with her aunt and is in therapy. She is just beginning to feel comfortable expressing her true feelings to others. Despite everything she has endured, Ariel has a strong desire to help children who feel unheard. She aspires to become a child psychologist in the future.

Ariel is a kind young woman who has been struggling with how she sees herself and her confidence. In the past, these struggles have led to self-harm, but she is currently in therapy and doing better than she has in a long time. Ariel has alopecia and is looking for a new wig that looks natural. She hopes it will help her feel more comfortable and confident, so she can blend in with her peers and focus on feeling like herself.
