Northern Star
Haley has been cancer-free since December, spending her 22nd birthday at her sixth and final chemotherapy session.
Haley arrived at the Northern Star’s office in the Campus Life Building, 545 Lucinda Ave., at about 3 p.m. Friday for a meeting. However, when Haley looked out the office window, she saw her family and an enormous yellow lamp with “Nik’s Wish” painted on its side.
Then she knew her wish was coming true.
Nikolas Ritschel Foundation is a non-profit organization that grants wishes for 18- to 24-year-olds fighting cancer who are too old to receive support from the Make-A-Wish Foundation, according to the foundation’s website.
