Trinity Wishes to Have a Pop-Up Camper

Trinity and her family usually stay at home for vacations rather than traveling on adventures that involve public crowds. This is because Trinity's immune system is delicate and the germs that can come along with tourist hot-spots serve as too high of a risk for Trinity to take. Her wish to have a pop-up camper allows her to experience a summer vacation like never before: traveling to and taking in "must-see" locations from the comfort and safety of her own personal space.

Mike and Diana, Trinity's wish granters, set the camper up at her grandparents' house as a surprise. They fully outfitted it with a balloon arch, Make-A-Wish magnets, a special door sign for Trinity, family games and even a traveling shower.

"To sum it all up: AWESOME!" said Mike. "We had a great time. While everyone ate the pizza we brought, Diana and I set the camper up with all the enhancements. When everyone was done eating Trinity and her family went to the camper. We showed them the sign. Her grandmother cried and her Mom was speechless. Everyone was so touched. We went through all the enhancements with them and stepped aside and watched everyone enjoy Trinity's smile and glow. This was so worth all that it took to make this happen. The weather was close but it only rained for 15 minutes while in route to their house. Clear, sunny and warm just in time."
