SydStrong works with our partner, Nik’s WIsh, to notify the leukemia patient that their “Wish is granted”. The wish reveal is done in person if possible but sometimes done by the patient’s family or the hospital staff. We are ecstatic when we can be a part of the reveal but equally as excited to be able to grant the SydSmile.
Each reveal is also a beginning. . .
There is no guarantee that this wish will actually be granted. So, it is a time for celebration of life and prayers for continued recovery.

SydSmiles have been revealed for these young adults. Please keep them in your prayers so that we can help them make their wishes come true!

ZAID

Zaid’s words:
“After my diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and my second bone marrow transplant, my life became very different. I spend much of my time in the hospital, going through treatments, and trying to stay strong. There are days that are really hard, but I keep fighting and hope for better days.”
“I have always dreamed of visiting New York City because I have seen it in movies and imagined its incredible energy and beauty. I also hope to explore Central Park, walk through Times Square, and feel the vibrant life of the city.”

Zaid’s wish was revealed in December. Zaid will be traveling to New York City with his family in 2026.
