I also spent a lot of time in the hospital and I missed a lot of school. My Mom always tells everyone how I have been through all this, and I almost never complained.
My wish was to go to Disney. My family had never been, and most of all I wanted to see Pooh Bear and all his friends. I had a GREAT time on my wish. I loved the limo ride to the airport, I loved Give Kids the World Village, (I hope to go back there sometime and volunteer), and of course, I loved all the Disney Parks. We had breakfast with all the Pooh characters, and I wore my Pooh shirt - which the Pooh character loved.
We are very thankful that Make-A-Wish did this for me and my family. Please know how much we REALLY APPRECIATED it!!!
