A Tennessee teen with cerebral palsy, Kari Shults, was invited to meet country music star Morgan Wallen at an upcoming concert in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Kari’s love for music and Wallen was highlighted in a local newspaper, catching the attention of Wallen’s mother, who arranged the special meeting.  “I got the BEST news ever! I get to meet Morgan Wallen in Charlotte, North Carolina. Thanks to everyone who made this possible. This is my dream come true,” Kari said on Facebook.

Wallen’s mother also visited Kari at her high school to wish her well before the concert. Kari and Wallen’s mom hugged and laughed while talking for an hour. Kari will meet Morgan this July.
