Nicholas was diagnosed with a Neuromuscular Disorder, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, when he was almost 2 years old. Now at 17 years old, the avid car enthusiast found himself at Covert Bee Cave, a Make-A-Wish sponsor.
The hot rod ride for Nicholas is the 269th wish that Make-A-Wish has done this year. Looking back on 2023, so far, there have been some pretty cool wishes. A lot involve amusement parks. Other creative trips have been to Fashion Week in New York, and a recent meet up with billionaire financial guru Robert Smith.
"We've had one unique wish. We had a 15-year-old boy who is obsessed with vacuum cleaners. And this year we sent him and his family to Chicago, and they had an amazing trip to Chicago, where they were the guests at Dyson's factory, and he was signed on to be an engineer for the day," said Ann Jerome, CEO of Central and South Texas Make-A-Wish.
The local group provides about 300 wishes every year. The wish for Nicholas arrived on his birthday. His cake didn't need candles to make the wish to come true. That was done by a lot of volunteers, donors and love. "You want to cry. So, one of his dreams is probably is to drive one. And sadly, I don't know if we'll ever get to have that happen. So having Make-A-Wish step in and saying, hey, yeah, we can make that happen, it's amazing," said Nicholas’ mom Jennifer Johnson. All the news you need to know, every day
