Review for Take A Breather Foundation, Narberth, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My son Michael Maisto was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when he was 3. Michael didn't start talking until he was 5 years old (he could talk but just didn't want to). Michael was in and out of the hospital with respiratory infections. Michael was and is a quiet kid but at the same time a very happy child. Almost 2 years ago Michael was in nutritional failure and we agreed to a gi tube to help him gain weight. Our social worker asked if there was anything Michael would want after his rough long week in the hospital and she introduced us to Matt. Being new to the program Matt was kind and when he said he also had Cystic Fibrosis it made us feel at ease. MATT was an adult with CF. WOW! Michael didn't go over the top with his wish but he wanted an Apple Notebook and an i pad. Why both because his little sister also has Cystic Fibrosis and they are joined at the hip. He wanted his own laptop to make Lego Movies and the i-pad for his sister so when they are in the hospital they could SKYPE each other. Matt and his Foundation came through for Michael. There is not a day that goes by that Michael doesn't touch his laptop. His sister take the I-pad everywhere. Of course taking pictures and chatting. Thank You Matt and your Foundation for granting Michael his wish.
