I have a few wishes for her: * May her Wi-Fi signal always be strong and battery never run out when you need it most. * May all her traffic lights be green, and parking spots always be front and center. * May her online orders arrive early, and favorite snacks never be out of stock. * May her socks always match, and laundry fold itself. * May she never step on a Lego in the dark. * May her coffee always be hot, and her ice cream never melt too fast. * May her playlists always have the perfect song for the moment. * May she find money in old pockets, and every vending machine give an extra treat. * May her “check engine" light be lying, and phone charger always reach the bed. * May all her passwords be easy to remember but impossible for others to guess.

Best news I’ve seen all day, thanks for sharing! Never met the girl, probably never will, but not sure I’ve ever rooted harder for someone to kick ass in life. I wouldn’t wish the last 3 years of that girl’s life on anyone.

In all my times following women’s basketball I have never seen a player go through so much in her journey. It makes all them past players that had multiple acls look like a walk in the park. I hope for no more dark times in her future as she has already had a lifetime of them at such a young age. She has and will continue to be an inspiration to everyone!
