Jack is 16 and loves country music, especially that of Nathan Carter. So, it was no surprise to his parents that his wish was to meet his music idol.
Living with IMAGe Syndrome Pole 1, an illness so rare that less than 20 children in the world have it, Jack requires a lot of medical assistance. However, he does not let it diminish his character as he is a bright, sociable and very funny young man.
Jack’s wish will be the 3,000th wish that Make-A-Wish® Ireland has granted since its inception in 1992, and it proved quite the celebration.
Jack and Nathan were able to spend the afternoon together sharing many laughs and chatting about all things music. Later that evening he attended Nathan's show at the Cork Opera House.
Arriving by limousine and receiving a special shoutout from Nathan during the show, made for an unforgettable day for Jack and his family.
Jack’s mum, Michelle, said, “It was totally amazing. Nathan called out Jack’s name in the crowd and put the spotlight on him. This made for a day that Jack nor his family will ever forget.
Hundreds of children like Jack are waiting for their wish to be granted, therefore we would greatly appreciate your support.
