“I wish to have a playstation3 and games“
Tobias with the smiling eyes and keen sense of humour has been in hospital for 12 months now as he awaits a lung transplant. The hospital does not have internet access so days can be long for him with just a TV and books.
When Tobias learnt that he could have his most heartfelt wish granted he thought long and hard - 6 months exactly! He knew that having a PlayStation3 and some games would be just the ticket!

And so, on a fine sunny day, Make-A-Wish joined Tobias, his mum and little sister Laura for a very special lunch on the balcony outside his room. Tobias insisted lunch be eaten before his wish was granted. He had taken 6 months to work out what his wish would be... so, he figured he could wait until after the ice-cream for his wish to be granted. |
Tobias LOVED his PlayStation3 and 2nd player joystick. It took him a few minutes to take it on board that his wish had really come true.…With five games to play he was delighted and couldn't wait to get started. The hard part was choosing which game to play first
Our grateful thanks to Media Markt Basel for their generosity in providing Make-A-Wish with a large discount on the games console. Special thanks to Mélanie and her colleagues at Electronic Arts Geneva for providing Tobias with lots of games to play.
