Trenton: Visiting Volcanoes in Hawaii
Posted: February 18, 2015Trenton is one of the amazing kids that Make-A-Wish has been able to help!
He is 7 years old, and is affected by a complex genetic disorder called Di George Syndrome. Despite his physical limitations, Trenton has a mental life that is probably more active than most! He’s fascinated “with natural disasters and exceptional events in the world, such as volcanic eruptions”.
In March 2014, Trenton and his family were able to go to Hawaii and visit active volcanoes, as well as historical landmarks such as Pearl Harbour!
Upon their return, Trenton’s mother shared that Trenton absolutely adored the trip and “every single day his smile was bigger than the day before”.
