Dev, 24 years old, OH | 6 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 10/09

Wish submitted by:

Dev is a quiet and shy man who lives with his grandparents, as his parents neglected him and his siblings for many years. Recently, he has been feeling scared and anxious because his grandmother no longer seems to want him around, and her treatment of him reflects that. This situation has intensified his anxiety. Despite these challenges, Dev has taken a significant step toward independence by securing a job, though he is just beginning this journey.

Dev has been dreaming about getting an ebike for his birthday, hoping it will provide him with reliable transportation to and from work. Currently, his grandmother drives him, but there are times when he has to walk the daunting 3.5 miles each way. This long trek leaves him feeling exhausted by the time he gets home. As he embarks on his journey toward independence, Dev acknowledges that it can be intimidating, but he is determined to keep moving forward.
