Ashley "Shopped 'til She Dropped"


Like many thirteen-year-old girls, Ashley knew exactly what she wanted to wish for when the Make-A-Wish Foundation came to her house to find out more about her. “I wish to go on a shopping spree to Easton!,” she exclaimed.

Ashley arrives in styleAshley suffers from a rare condition called Arteriovenous malformation (AVM), which is the abnormal connection between the veins and arteries that sometime causes severe epilepsy. She has fought a brave battle and knew she would enjoy time away from the doctor’s visits and treatments at the mall with her grandmother, shopping at her favorite stores.

Ashley and her grandmother were whisked away in a limousine to go to Easton Town Center for a magical shopping spree. She visited her favorite clothing store, Justice and a few others. Ashley was able to pick out new clothes, shoes, a Nintendo DS and an MP3 player!

Ashley "Shopped 'til she dropped"In the words of her grandmother “Ashley shopped 'til she dropped!”

After a long day of shopping, Ashley's wish volunteers joined her for a delicious meal at the Spaghetti Warehouse, where the entire party was treated to a complimentary dinner.
