ROCKFORD- Miles, 8, is a happy little boy from Rockford. His favorite activity is creating buildings with Lego blocks. When lunch time nears, Miles enjoys snacking on his favorite treat, blue yogurt.

In early spring of 2014, Miles was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a life threatening progressive muscular disease. This young man does not allow his condition to slow him down. Miles wished to take his building skills to Lego Land to see the place that little colored blocks built.

The fun began when Miles and his family were picked up and driven to the airport in a limo. On July 23, Miles’ wish to go to Lego Land came true.

On his wish he was able to meet master builders, see the Lego work shop and was able to get a tour of where little blocks build some of the greatest things on earth. Miles’ mother said,

“It was a dream come true for Miles and for us as a family. He has always loved to build things and when this opportunity for a wish came about Miles knew exactly what he wanted to wish for Miles went home with some great souvenirs, but that was not all,” Miles mother said.

“He now has a tremendous amount of memories thanks to Make-A-Wish that will stay with him forever,” Mrs. Thavy said.

“It was a once in a life time experience and something that we will cherish forever,” Miles’ mother stated.

Wishes can provide a child the strength it takes to battle on against a condition that threatens their lives. Wishes like Miles’ are made possible through the Make-A-Wish Foundation with the generous financial support of individual, community and corporate donors.
