Andrew’s Magical Moment (Sponsored by Joe Donahue)

Andrew is a quiet and reserved 14 year-old…until he watches his favorite wrestlers on TV. He loves the energy of the wrestlers and the thrill of watching them fly through the air. Andrew is living with neurofibromatosis so he is not able to wrestle with his friends, but he loves to play wrestling games on his computer so he can become virtual wrestler and be a part of the action. For his wish, Andrew wanted to share in the excitement of a match and go to a wrestling event to meet his favorite wrestler: Jeff Hardy!
