Antonio (center), 8, with his father, retired Sgt. Frank Laguna, and Jessica Robertson of Backbone Valley Nursery, Marble Falls, Texas, cuts the ribbon July 28 on the automated greenhouse he received through Make-A-Wish Central and South Texas. At the age of 6, Antonio was diagnosed with the rare and life-threatening disease of Rapid-onset Obesity with Hypothalamic dysfunction, Hypoventilation and Autonomic Dysregulation. ROHHAD affects everything the body is supposed to do naturally – like weight management, eye focus, bowel movements, breathing, temperature regulation and even psychological behaviors, said Candace. There are 75-cases of the condition worldwide. Soldiers from the 115th Brigade Support Battalion, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, along with many community volunteers and donors, helped make Antonio’s wish a reality.
