Silas, 20 years old, VA | 12 DAYS WAITING |

Wish submitted by:

Silas has found comfort and companionship in his pug, Biscuit, who has been a constant source of love after years in foster care and frequent moves. As a young man working to support himself and save for community college, Silas always puts Biscuit’s needs first. His love for animals has inspired his dream of becoming a veterinary technician so he can help other animals in need. Despite the challenges he has faced, Silas continues to build a stable future while giving Biscuit the same unconditional love and security he once wished for himself.

Sunday mornings are Silas’s favorite time of the week. There’s no alarm, no rush to a shift, just the quiet of his apartment and Biscuit padding after him to the kitchen, hoping a crumb might fall. A waffle maker would turn that quiet morning into a tradition: warm, golden waffles, a little syrup, and a slow start to the day that he never had growing up. For years, meals happened wherever he was placed, and rarely felt like his own. Now he wants to build a Sunday ritual that makes a house feel like a home, one he can share with a friend or simply enjoy with his pug at his feet.
