A 6-year-old North Chicago girl battling cancer had her wish granted on Sunday thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and the North Chicago Fire Department.

Amy Velazquez, 6, is battling leukemia, according to North Chicago city officials.

Amy’s wish was to have her room made over, officials said.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation was able to make that wish come true along with another wish with the help of the North Chicago Fire Department.
