That moment changed my life, that made me feel the emotions from the Hospital and the Stadium. The emotions were heavy, and the goosebumps were felt by the fans and players on both sides of the field. I remember seeing people from all directions 👋waving from their hearts some with tears in their eyes. That’s why the heart on the palm of the 👋 WAVE stands for a heartfelt wave from the heart.

As I watched the children hold their signs to wave, I felt the waves of hope exchanged from the stadium to the hospital. It was a connection that felt as if the world had stopped for that moment.

After the wave ended and we all sat down for the second quarter, I started to notice the patients and their parents walk away from the window as if that was their light of the day.

I thought to myself that I wanted to do something more for the children and the parents. I couldn’t imagine what those Children and the parents were going through. So, when I put on the (3I9) apparel with the 👋wave, it makes me feel even though the Children aren’t able to see me, I’m still waving and that I didn’t stop thinking about them and their parents when the second quarter started. And that the wave never stopped when I sat back down from the 👋WAVE. And that I’m not just waving, I’m doing something about it.

That’s why I added the waving hand to the (3I9). A portion of my Wave apparel proceeds will be donated to the Children’s Hospital. I also want to Donate a 👋wave hat to every Child that has to stay in the hospital. So they can always see the 👋WAVE every day and not just on home gameday.
