J's Wish Trip Dream Factory/GKTW October 1st-7th 2010

Ok so this is where we stand atm;
We have 2 1/2 months prior to trip.
I know what day we fly out on.
I know who we are flying with.
No clue what time we fly out as of yet.


I am on pins n needles waiting for my sons wish coordinater to contact us and let us know the specific flight time. :scared1:

So other than that my DD 17 (Katelynn) and my DS 14 Wish Kiddo (James)
Have been talking about thier Must haves.

DS wants to try at least 1 big ride and ride on as many rides as possible
Also wants a picture with spongebob and to go see the starwars exhibit.

and DD wants to Pick a pearl thats her top priority and she hasn't picked anything else yet really thats a MUST have to make the trip special.

They are both Very shy, so getting them to say what it is they really want is like pulling teeth !!!

Do have a question for anyone following along thats already been,

We will technically have 5 days to do things in since I do not know our flight times yet. I have read that we get 3 days disney, 2 days universal and 1 day seaworld. for seaworld is that something that we could get in and out within 3 hours ? The one thing my son was saying he would like from there is to walk into that shark tunnel shown online, Kiddos have never been to an aquarium either and he does love sharks.

And I just realized today looks like kiddos will miss the Christmas Party at GKTW depending on what time we fly out that day we will be leaving on a thursday. :sad1: I swear I am as bad as a kiddo at times lol I was hoping to have a picture of katelynn n james taken with santa as I do not have a single one with them with Santa.. ah well Rest of trip will surely make up for missing the Christmas night I'm Sure.


One of these days I might actually start planning vs babbling :rotfl:

You better get planning young lady! At least you have two willing and able to plan kiddos to help you out!! :lmao: I would have them each pick a park to make a plan for that works for you all. Kinda like really fun homework! I let my DD help me plan and she loved it- thought she was really big stuff then. And if the plan doesn't work- oh well- at least then they have an idea of what all is available to them in the parks.

:laundy::laundy: (sorry... DS1 wanted those there...lol) :bride::grouphug::banana: He is adding more- he likes them. :goodvibes:dance3:pirate::p:crazy2: Ok. He is done.

He just erased my entire message.... ugh! This is a re-write.....

It bites about missing the Christmas party too. Mayne it will work out? Or maybe you could ask about it at GKTW? It never hurts to ask. Explain how you would like the pic and maybe they can make it happen. :hug:
 
Hi, Not sure where or how to begin here. I started out with curiousity about gktw and stumbled my way upon these forums. I will start by saying thank you to those of you who have shared your stories and inspired me to write a bit about mine.

I'll start out with who we are:
There is ME: Mum - My DH - My DD (17) and my DS (14) Dream Factory Wish Kiddo
well we have had some pretty bumpy roads along the way, my daughter was always our very ill one, she has had pnumonia countless number of times starting with her first round at 5 months old, and she's had it at least once every year since sometimes multiple times despite having pnumonia shot. she has Asthma and arthritis and a hollow bone in her knee and IBS. and she is not the wish child !
My son was always colic as a baby, had an umbilical hernia also as a baby that never went away but despite that he seemed very healthy. until at nearly a year old he was anemic. Now my dr blamed me for this and gave me all sorts of information on "food pyramid" etc etc etc it's always interesting when you are a young mother how easily you are dismissed. and I have to add the fact that i nursed my son for 2 years, and obviously gave him food at the proper steps. and what my Dr did not realize is i had chosen to take parenting classes several years prior to having my son. ( NOthing like turning a short story long is there) ok back to my son.
This went on for several years my son being anemic then not anemic roller coaster.. he grew at a slower rate then my daughter but was very smart so i presumed he was just going to be my lil guy.. then at about 7ish he sorta quit growing now mind you in all this i am dealing with my daughters illnesses and sicknesses so i had not fully become aware that he was not growing fast enough. well in that time frame my son was hit by a car (seperate long story) and that sent things rolling in a different direction.
OK now my son is past the car accident finally and things seem to be once again getting better and at about my sons 10th birthday it hit me.. He is Tiny ! amazing how on a particular day you notice something that has been right before you. he was so small at age 10 that i could hold him up on my hip comfortably. well i took him for a 2nd physical that year and again he was anemic
I started giving him 2 vitamins vs 1 per day and making sure he had the breakfast protein drinks along with his regular breakfast jussst in case i was missing something as Dr's were saying it was something i was doing yet again. a couple months later he had lost some serious weight and begun looking pale this was at the end of july of his 10th year at this point. we started taking him to the dr's weekly asking dr after dr what was wrong. they would just shrug it off say he was ok and send us on our way. few weeks later the bleeding began or when my son finally come to me and asked me if blood was normal ... off to dr's that same day .. Dr says oh well maybe e-coli... son now starts to sleep constantly and is becoming paler and paler, a few more months pass and still taking him to the dr's weekly watching him cry in pain he could no longer walk as his ankles hurt dr's said nothing was wrong.. well long story short Christmas Eve was here.. now any kiddo is excited on xmas eve
not my son
he was tired and seriously looked like he was from another dimension. the color of him was there is only one way i can describe it and if i try it will just get me crying so i wont even try, its just not a good feeling seeing your child that small and that pale and not care that its christmas cause he is fighting to survive( i just didnt know how much he was fighting).
family kept saying "oh his father was always pale too" yadda yadda well day after christmas i took him back up to the dr's this time i meet new dr that is still in training. so i am iffy about her
i finally look at her and ask 1 simple question can you please tell me why my son is anemic? WELL bang.. she looked at me i looked at her course i am in tears at this point cause now i am having to carry my son everywhere he goes he simply cant walk.. she says i want you to go for blood work and i'll see you in a couple days.. my son and i get home after blood work i no more then had just taken his jacket off and boom she wanted to send an ambulance.. hemoglobin was down to almost 4 just under 4 now this was foreign to me i did not know what this meant... but i drove my son cause it is faster then waiting for an ambulance Blood transfusion time.. and thats when life again begun to change... ok so he is admitted finally for testing and dr's are looking at me like i am a horrible woman for letting my son get so ill , i even heard one say something about me out in hallway as i stood in room looking at my son getting someone elses blood .. dont get me wrong i am greatful for the donation and i do donate blood but i was oddly angry that someone elses blood was running into my sons veins when it should be mine.. course when i finally went home to see my daughter for awhile i decided to google up everyone of my sons symptoms and it come up to 2 conclusions .. Leukimia or Crohn's.. BOTH Scared me so it become a waiting game took 1.5 montsh to finally diagnose him and he did in fact have Crohn's disease. his gets so severe that he gets the ulcers inside his mouth in esophagus all thru entire digestive system hios colon already looks black in areas and has several spots dr's could not even get to with a scope. he also gets the ulcers on top of his head and gets a rare crohns rash all over his arms n legs when he is having a severe flareup. with this Crohns he has arthritis .. gets migrains and easily tires.. well this has started a long road of every 6 to 8 weeks he goes in for infusions and takes a slew of drugs in the morning just to try and avoid a flare up. can have no whole grains .. only white breads no fresh fruits and veggies unless its a melon with no seeds.. the list goes on and on .. easily summed up.. If its good for you its bad for him. Even though i was feeding him correctly whole grains plenty of fruits and veggies etc etc for him all those years i was feeding him incorrectly.. so In short Crohn's disease .. before my son was diagnosed i had never heard of it now i wish i never had. there is more to the whole Crohn's than i have listed here as far as complications can go but as far as letting you all know why J' is so in need of this trip and his sister too this would be why... EEgads a book sorry all and sorry for all the typos !!!! and after this background i can start telling more about the Upcoming trip !! something positive finally :D


On my under my moms name. Don't have one of my own.
Just read a little about your story and what your daughter has gone through and is still going through caught my attention. My daughter (7 years old) has had numerous hospital stays due to pneumonia. She has low bone density, asthma and osteoperosis. Along with dermatology problems which cause major skin infections. She was tested for Job's Syndrome, which is an immune dificiency. It is only done at John Hopkins in Maryland and your doctor has to order the test, however they can do a blood draw to check the IGG levels to get a good idea if Job's Syndrome is present. Just thought I would share this info with you. They have started my daughter on a new medicine that is supposed to help her not get the pneumonia as much. We won't know anything until this fall however. Hope you enjoy your trip and we may be there when you are. We are waiting for our Special Wish dates.

:grouphug:Now that is precious !!! anytime he wants to click away hop on here LOL

My DD has been doing some major research and my DS(wish kiddo) is a last minute type of lil guy so i'm sure once we get the actual flight times the massive planning will begin :laughing:

Thanks for writing, thats soo interesting We have had DD tested for everything under the sun but i have never heard of that, i might ask dr about it just to rule it out. I know summer times she is at her best both of the kids tend to be at thier best health during summer despite all thier allergies

I know my son doesnt seem to be doing as well as he could be atm , my guess is his remicade did not take :sad2: so I am crossing my fingers his next treatment will go better which will be at the end of this month

Jobs is also known as hyper IGE levels. Has she ever had her IGE levels checked? Madison is the youngest person known to have jobs. We are being sent to John Hopkins in Maryland to see a doctor that specializes in Jobs. We have been told that she is now in the life threatening stage, which is how we qualified for this trip.
i hope your son gets to feeling better.

Thanks for the well wishes for my son :) and you know, I am not sure if she has ever had her IGE levels done tbh. She has her annual physical coming up and I figured I could ask DR then, see we have student dr's It's a learning facility which has its pro's n cons as does anyplace. However, I have learned over the years to ask tons of questions vs just wonder. I;m so sorry your daughter is in the life threatening stage, I pray she holds steady and Dr's can help sustain. :hug::hug::hug: It will be so exciting to finally have a DR free week tho won't it? Not the way i would have ever planned my first family vacation (going to disney due to ill kiddo) But I will be forever greatful for the opportunity the excitement alone of talking about what we will see what we will do has been a definate mood lifter
 
Well, seeing as this all seemed to be so to good to be true for my son and our family, I started to over think everything :laughing: soo I emailed my sons wish granter coordinater not sure what we call her , Our Dream Maker :wizard: and she let me know we will not know our flight times until sometime in September where James was chosen for the american airlines wish flight. she said it is a done deal :yay: I will still feel better when I see something on paper silly huh? However knowing that its a 100% go for Oct 1 - 7th my DD Katelynn has decided we must start the planning. Since we do not know when flight times will be until sept we have decided to exclude the
1st and exclude the 7th (fly in and out days) in the planning process and if we have time to do something on those days it will be a bonus :woohoo:
so my questions out there to anyone reading this is;

Is harry potter section a whole day event or a 1/2 day? my son will only do a ride at most twice and if its super fast, the fastest/roughest coasters he will not even do those ones and from reading trip reports getting into the stores will almost be impossible in harry potter

does anyone know if you can leave a park 1/2 day go back to gktw for lunch/break and then go back to the park on the same ticket?
we will not be bringing any personal money however we was told we would get a lil bit of money for souvineers or a dinner whichever we chose to do and I know my kiddos they will want souvineers they might be 14 and 17 but they are young in many ways. so we will skip adr's

If you do not sit thru a show at seaworld and go to more or less look at the sharks and maybe penguins etc would that be 1/2 day ? I know my DS mentioned it would be cool to walk through the shark tunnel like you see on tv

I also have a question about GKTW, both of my kiddos eat about every 2 to 3 hours small meals are you only allowed 1 dinner 1 lunch 1 supper? trying to figure out if i should budget some money to go grocery shopping while there

Its amazing how many what if questions I have LOL but for now these are the ones on mind most
Thanks :grouphug:

I wondered if you guys would be part of Wish Flight!! How awesome is that!!!!!! :)

I would do Harry Potter in the very early morning or late in the afternoon - as the crowds will hopefully be less and you could actually get in to the stores (which are an attraction by themselves) - make sure you find a Team Member that will help get you through the crowds. :)

Yes - you can definitely go back to any park. Sea World will give you a stamp to get back in and the rest you can use your ticket. :)

I would call GKTW and ask the question about the meals. You can certainly eat ice cream many times a day and I believe that they have some food items at the ice cream shop, but I am not sure if they would count toward your allotment.

However, I really think the allotment is just to keep people from getting a ton of food - for some reason GKTW was having trouble because people were eating more than they were supposed to (which I don't really get?) - but I know that GKTW would give you something to get small meals instead of large ones or just give you more vouchers. I also think you can purchase vouchers for a very small fee, too, which would be a lot cheaper than buying snacks.

If you just want to buy snacks to take with you, then there is a WalMart right down the street by GKTW - you can't miss it. :)

Keep firing away with the questions! I don't always see them...so you can pos them to the wish trippers thread, too, if you want. :)


congrats on WISH FLIGHT!!!!!!
 
Wow! The wish flight should be extra cool! I can't even imagine!! Congrats on that one- and you will have to explain more about it too! I know there is a plane that takes a bunch of Wish Kids- but tell me more!!! :goodvibes

I would tell you more but I have no clue what to expect :rotfl: Only description we have been given so far is; " it's like a party in the air" :upsidedow
So when it comes time for a TR I will definatly have a section in there about that.

The list of must do's from the kids have started to come in -
Kids List;

Mad Tea Party
Kali River Rapids
Star Tours
Test Track
Big Thunder Mountain
These ones are my DS (wish kiddos choice)

Haunted mansion
Imageworks Seas w/finding Nemo
sourin
imagination pavillion innoventions
Discovery Island Trails
National Treasure

These ones are my DD's choice

It was so cute listening to them talk about what was thier favorites by looking at the disney site

We did go in and order the maps from the disney site (no printer otherwise I would have just printed) so now kids keep checking the mail daily for those :rotfl2: Yay

Least my DS seems to be holding up well today no nap !!! :woohoo:
I love the days where my DS seems to act like an atypical teen. I find myself giggling at some of the parents that have kiddos same age when they get soo upset over something as silly as a hairstyle ... Yep my sons hair is long .. do i like it? nope do i want to complain about it heck noooo lol i;m happy he has some again so if he wants long he can have it

Starting to wonder if i should have had the nickname babblemum :lmao:

:grouphug:
 
I am the queen of babbling about absolutely nothing for the longest periods of time! Feel free to join me in my queenship! :rotfl2:

I feel you on the hair thing- I did everything under the sun to my own hair, so why would I care how my kid does theirs? At least hair typically grows back!

And their list so far is completely doable!! Easy peasy, lemon squeezey as Wilson says on Chuggington. My DS is a train junkie and that is his fav show! :goodvibes

Just list everything out by park and look at your maps for a general direction and list them in order. We also ordered the maps- they are great! Siper nice maps you can keep for a long time! Big maps and stickers too! We each took a different sticker type and put them on the maps for our must do's for each person. It was cute and made it seem so much more real!

Sounds like you guys are having a blast planning! Keep going and roll with what the kiddos want. You will be able to do so much more than you think with those passes you guys get. The green light GAC sounds like a great thing for Wish families!:goodvibes
 
Tee Hee. Wish Flight is a big secret! :)

I will tell you, though, that it involves a LOT of airplanes. :) Not just one. :)


Just go with it...you guys will have a blast! :)

:upsidedow thats what DH and I are going to do. We've come to the conclusion that while yes I am doing the blogging the kiddos are tag teaming the actual planning as far as what days we do what and where :3dglasses

I think atm I have about 20 Lists going.. what to pack .. what to have on plane.. med list for entire house... etc etc etc


Do have a question about rides.. Say for example we are on a ride we'll use sourin for this example cause i have heard many people say they went back in line to ride it multiple times .. can you ride it back to back? or? I;m asking because my DS is the type if he realllly enjoyed he will want to do it again so i;m trying to see if we should avoid doing that or if it is acceptable to let him do so
 
It's a silly lil update but I got the chance to check my e-mail today and the mailing confirmation for the disney maps came in and the maps were mailed yesterday. :yay: Such a lil thing it might be but this might make this all feel a bit more real for my son. He has moments where he asks me is this really happening. so to have something tangable will give him that momentum to be excited.
His Crohn's is definatly no longer in remission:sad1: I was hoping it was just a small glitch with him being ill but as the days go by I have noticed him being more tired again and he keeps getting those odd hickey like bruises broken blood vessels I guess and Pain :sad2: Nothing we can do to change that at this point.So its a very bland diet again until his next treatment which will be on August 11th. Those days always make me nervous !!! But thankfully my DH's Mum has started coming with me while James has his treatments. My anxiety stays a bit better with her around and I am so greatful for all she does for us. Last Treatment she was so sweet and packed a lunch for herself, my daughter and I. What a treat that was.

So anyways DISNEY MAPS :rotfl: that will help make this all a step closer to real. If you knew us you would understand why we are all having a hard time beleiving something so fantastic is about to happen. If we didnt have bad luck we would have none:lmao: Pssst.. Least we have some sorta luck LOL ok bad luck is still luck no? hehe

Hello! Just wanted to say a late but heartfelt welcome! I'm very excited for your family and your upcoming wish trip! This site has a great deal of information feel free to ask away!

My family went on my son's wish trip last month and I have to say that there were quite a few rides that we got to ride multiple times back to back! A lot of CM's are really nice and don't mind at all! That really helped make our trip extra special because my son is only three and there were a lot of rides that he was too small for. So the rides that he could ride and enjoy, he really wanted to to ride them over and over again!

Thank you :hug: also thank you for answering my question :) My DS(wish kiddo) was telling me today while we were dreaming over disney that he would not mind getting off and get back in line so others have a fair chance to ride too, so i was trying to let him know a lil bit that where he gets tired easier and hurts a bit more then average joe that it might be ok this time to take double turns.. Nope :lovestruc he says he would not feel fair doing that. a turn is a turn :) so I will not push him on that one.
 
Talking about hurting,
We tried to do a local beach trip today :beach: and that did not work out so well, so here I sit in middle of night watching my kiddo sleep... I figured snce I was up i could pop on here and babble a bit more :lmao:

So My ds was not feeling up to par today but wanted to try and see the ocean just the same. DD had an orthodontics appt as well today which brought us 1/2 way to the ocean. So, we decided we would simply go the rest of the way to sneak a peak at the "world drop off". It's something we have always said about the oceam. I was only able to get 2 pics as atm I am borrowing a camera and well I am always cautious when borrowing since my DD and i can be so graceful. A beach has so many chances for error.. sand and water etc... We are so graceful that we would have dropped it in water or a seagull would have drug it off :rotfl: oh wait that was the chips....
so we climbed a small island, drew a giant cat in the sand for the passing planes to see and then went back to blanket for snack.., Shortly after snack my DS's crohns decided to peak its ugly head in so shortly after having his snack, we needed to call it a day.

So here is the giant cat :lmao:

I think it is definitely possible to ride some things over and over - but Soarin' is one example of one that may be more difficult. Because of the way they load it - they would have already organized the next group to come in right as the ride is finished and will be numbered off to sit in certain seats.

But it never hurts to ask. Most rides, I would think, you would be able to ride again. We were able to ride Peter Pan several times - partly because it was so hard to get Lauren on and off.

At the worst, you would be able to back through the Fast Pass line to ride again.

Space Mountain is one that I would think would be hard to ride over and over - because the exit is not where the entrance is?? But I am just guessing...I have never desired a back to back ride on that. :laughing:

Thanks for answering :) J's decided that on all rides we will get off and if he really wants to go again just get back in line :cutie: small things like that still always makes me so proud

Again Maroo Thank you for everything you do for all of us here you have been a godsend as far as planning and answering questions !!:cheer2:
Have enjoyed all your trip reports :grouphug:
