Philadelphia Phillies make Lebanon teen's wish comes true

Adam Sauerwein was recently granted his wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation at his home in Lebanon.

He didn't ask for a vacation. He didn't ask for a trip to Disney, which makes up 85 percent of the Make-A-Wish requests. He simply wanted a day to hang out with his favorite team, the Philadelphia Phillies.

On Friday, Sauerwein, along with his parents David and Lori, got to see his dream come true.

Adam, 15, suffers from Rasmussen's Syndrome, which is a form of epilepsy. The syndrome is characterized by seizures that affect one side of his brain and can't be controlled without medication.
