Josh, an 8-year-old SF Giants superfan battling liver cancer, adored his team more than anything. As his condition worsened, his nurse, Laura, was determined to lift his spirits. Through a serendipitous phone call during playoffs, she connected with Dusty Baker. That very night, Dusty visited Josh, and for the first time in weeks, Josh’s face lit up with a smile. That unforgettable moment inspired Laura and fellow nurse Joanne to imagine something bigger…a way to bring hope and happiness to seriously ill, hospitalized children through “little wishes.” Shortly after, Josh passed away, but his legacy lived on as Little Wishes was born. Now, over 30,000 wishes later, Dusty came to Sutter Children’s (fairy wings and all) to witness and be part of the magic his kindness inspired over 20 years ago. </video> <video> Little Wishes: A Christmas Little Wish Description: Seven-year-old Rayyan had been dreaming of the holidays—his favorite time of year.
