Bringing comfort, joy, and lasting legacies to those we serve.
Our Mission
At My Final Wish, we are driven by a profound commitment to honoring the dignity, compassion, and final wishes of terminally ill adults in the Dallas-Fort Worth community. Our mission is rooted in the belief that every individual deserves to experience love, connection, and meaningful celebration during their final days. We exist to bridge the gap between medical care and the deeply human need for emotional fulfillment, ensuring that no one faces the end of life without the opportunity to create lasting memories, heal relationships, and leave behind a legacy that reflects their unique spirit.
Fulfilling Final Wishes
A terminal diagnosis can feel isolating, but at My Final Wish, we believe in the transformative power of granting final desires—no matter how big or small. From fulfilling bucket-list adventures to facilitating intimate family gatherings, we work tirelessly to turn dreams into reality. These experiences are more than just events; they are acts of love that reaffirm the value of a life well-lived. Whether it’s a veteran’s wish to revisit a meaningful place, a grandparent’s dream to meet a newborn grandchild, or an artist’s hope to see their work displayed, we mobilize resources, volunteers, and community partners to make it happen. Each fulfilled wish becomes a testament to the enduring impact of human connection.
Uniting Families and Communities
The end of life is not just an individual journey—it’s a shared experience that touches families, friends, and entire communities. My Final Wish serves as a catalyst for unity, bringing people together to celebrate, heal, and find solace in collective remembrance. We facilitate gatherings that foster reconciliation, laughter, and gratitude, ensuring that no one must grieve in isolation. By engaging the broader Dallas-Fort Worth community—through volunteerism, fundraising, and awareness campaigns—we create a network of support that extends far beyond the individual. Together, we prove that even in loss, there is beauty, connection, and the opportunity to leave behind a legacy of love.
Celebrating Legacies
A person’s life is a story worth telling, and at My Final Wish, we are dedicated to preserving and honoring those stories. Through legacy projects—such as video memoirs, personalized tribute events, or charitable initiatives in the individual’s name—we ensure that their values, wisdom, and passions continue to inspire others. These acts of remembrance provide comfort to grieving families and affirm that every life has meaning. Our work doesn’t end with a final wish; it lives on in the hearts of those who were touched by the experience.
Our Vision
Creating meaningful and lasting memories for patients and their families during end-of-life care is a profound and compassionate endeavor. By focusing on personalized experiences, emotional support, and thoughtful gestures, healthcare providers and caregivers can help foster moments of connection, comfort, and dignity. Whether through storytelling, creating legacy projects, or facilitating meaningful interactions, these efforts can provide solace and a sense of closure, ensuring that the final stages of life are filled with love, respect, and cherished memories.

Each wish is an opportunity to celebrate life, connect with loved ones, and leave a lasting legacy.
Memories are precious gifts
Life is a fleeting, beautiful journey, and its true value lies in the moments we live and the memories we create. Every smile shared, every sunset watched, every quiet moment with someone we love becomes a thread in the tapestry of our existence. It's easy to get caught up in the rush of daily life, but it's in the pauses—the laughter with friends, the comfort of family, the milestones big and small—that we find what truly matters. Cherishing memories isn't about living in the past; it's about honoring the experiences that shape us and holding close the people and feelings that make life so profoundly precious.
