Edwardo, 14 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Edwardo is an autistic teen who likes to play video games for comfort and a sense of security at home. Edwardo is a sweet, cheerful teenager who lives in a wooded area and doesn’t have children his age to hang around with. He has a sister who is a couple of years older, and they tend to play video games together.

Edwardo is an autistic high school student who relies on visual cues for stimulation. Recently, he accidentally broke his PlayStation, and unfortunately, his family has limited funds to replace it. His single mother, who has just started a new job, is working hard to support their household of two. Playing video games has always been Edwardo's preferred way to relax and find calm, making the loss of his game system particularly difficult for him.
