🌟 Wish Wednesday: Sid's Cardinals Wish 🌟 This week, we’re celebrating Sid, a bright, talented 12-year-old whose love for baseball and the St. Louis Cardinals runs deep. ⚾️ After a sudden diagnosis of a rare kidney disease, Sid faced immense challenges with remarkable strength and positivity. When it came time to make his wish, there was no hesitation: he dreamed of throwing the first pitch at a Cardinals game. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community of donors and partners, Sid’s wish came true. He received a full VIP experience at Busch Stadium, including batting practice, a behind-the-scenes tour, and the unforgettable moment of stepping onto the mound to throw the ceremonial first pitch. Sid's story is a testament to the power of a wish to bring hope, joy, and unforgettable memories to children facing critical illnesses.
