A local radio station here has a morning show (which I believe is nationally syndicated but not sure) and they have an organization called Grin Kids. They raise money all year through various events to take terminally ill or severely handicapped kids to Disney World. It is actually great they have a private plane, hire medical staff to go with them and they get a police escort to and from the airport (here not sure about Orlando). They tour as a group and are in Disney this week.
They air their show live from WDW during that week. They are there this week. During their show they thank everyone - corporate sponsors and individuals who have donated money by having the families tell their magical stories. This is the link the their site - it is a good feeling to see the families have miracles and once in a lifetime experiences. Make me count my blessings and put things in perspective (much like give kids the world does). Today I heard a story of a little boy who responded to all the stimulation and reached out to his parents to hug them for the first time.

I just wanted to share and hope it brings some magic to anyone who needs it today!
