What Would You Wish For?

 
This isn't Joshua's first experience with brain tumors.  When he was 5 years old he had a Cranialpharyngioma removed that destroyed his pituitary gland.  The tumor was benign and surgery was successful.  He didn't have to have any other treatments at the time, but learning to live without a pituitary gland has been a challenge!  Because of his history and current condition, Joshua has been referred to Make A Wish Foundation.  He gets to have a wish granted!  So, if you were 17 years old and going through the fight of your life, what would you wish for? 
 



Joshua has come up with his wish, but I am sworn to secrecy!!  When I do get to reveal his wish, I will tell you this.....it will melt your heart and speak to the character of this boy.  No, not boy--Young Man!

    1. Believe me, we all gave him lots of selfish ideas! His wish isn't selfish at all. He never ceases to amaze me!
