Cabarrus County senior gets special surprise just in time for graduation

CABARRUS COUNTY, N.C. — A high school senior got a pretty special surprise just in time for graduation.

Friends lined the streets and the signs were out for Drew Allen. But this isn’t graduation day for the Central Cabarrus senior.

Allen lived with cystic fibrosis, so Make-A-Wish teamed up with Turn-5 to give him something special.

“To have everybody and have the support, it just warms my heart. It’s amazing,” Allen said.
