St. Vrain students got to see that dragons can be real with a wish and a push for innovation.
Belle Cress, a 15-year-old from Colorado Springs, stroked her purple-scaled pet dragon as others admired the robotic creature responding to her touch on Wednesday at the Innovation Center. The size of a small dog, the pet dragon was Belle’s wish when she was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of aggressive bone cancer.
