Wish Brings a Big Splash of Bliss at Splash Lagoon Waterpark
Erie, Pennsylvania – Theodor’s wish brought on a big splash of bliss at Splash Lagoon Indoor Waterpark Resort. Knowing that the water is his happy place, Kids Wish Network made his dream come true, sending him to the indoor tropical waterpark paradise. He had the sweetest smiles tubing with his mom on their lazy river, and enjoying the wave pool. “We got to relax just me and him,” said his mom Kasey. “It was nice to get away.”
During the wish, they stayed at Wyndham Garden Erie, with a hallway conveniently connected with Splash Lagoon. They also enjoyed dinner at Bob Evans who graciously provided their family’s meals.
With the generosity of Splash Lagoon’s sponsorships with Applebee’s and Quaker Steak & Lube, Theodor and his mom additionally enjoyed dining at these popular restaurants. Splash Lagoon also generously provided their hotel stay at Wyndham Garden Erie, and admission to their waterpark.
“We really appreciate it, and had a good time,” said his mom. It was a meaningful time to relax, connect and create special memories.
Theodor lost oxygen at birth. As time went on, he displayed concerning symptoms and underwent testing. His diagnoses include cerebral palsy, a neurological condition that affects muscle movement and development; spastic quadriplegia, a severe form of cerebral palsy that affects both the arms and legs; and encephalomalacia, characterized by the loss or softening of brain tissue. He relies on a wheelchair for mobility and loving care for all his needs.
Many Thanks
Kids Wish Network could not have provided this wish to Theodor without the help of Splash Lagoon, Bob Evans, Applebee’s, Wyndham Garden Erie, Quaker Steak & Lube, and the many supporters who believe in making wishes come true for kids who need hope.
