Wesley, 10 years old, MO | 1 DAY WAITING
Wish submitted by:
MO DSS Children's Division - St. Francois CountyWesley has been in foster care and has special needs. Because of this, it has been a struggle to find a home that is a good fit for him, but he has finally found one. He is selectively verbal and often spends time by himself. He loves everything related to Sonic the Hedgehog and enjoys eating at McDonald's. Wesley is always on the go and full of energy.
Wesley is autistic and can become easily overwhelmed. When this happens, fidget toys help him calm down and refocus his attention. The Little Ouchies toys are especially helpful for him, but he often misplaces them. A replacement set would be very helpful so he always has a way to self-soothe and feel more grounded when things become overwhelming.
