When he learned that he would be granted a wish, Nathan’s stoic demeanor brightened with joy, a vibrant smile on his face. “My wish is to be a singer,” Nathan said without hesitation, hope shining in his eyes. The thought of being a performer fills his heart with strength to keep fighting.
Nathan's condition impacts nearly every aspect of his life – his ability to walk, talk, eat and interact with others. At only 11 years old, Nathan has undergone more than 10 brain surgeries and experienced frequent periods of isolation.
To help keep his stress levels low, Nathan's mom plays Nathan’s favorite music to calm his anxiety. After each surgery, she turns to his beloved opera singers to help soothe him. Through music, Nathan is able to look beyond the trauma of his treatments and imagine better days where he’s the musical artist helping others through a difficult time.
“When we talk about Make-A-Wish, you see a light of hope on his face. Thank you deep from my heart for your dedication, for giving me hope, for giving Nathan faith, and for putting a smile on my family’s face.”
