Make a Wish (and other organizations) ~ Wish Trippers UNITE! Volume FOUR!

[mommy2girlswv]

Am I the only one walking around with a big dumb smile on her face? I feel like I am in the middle of an incredible dream---one from which, I hope I never wake up!! She's going to Disney!

I simply can't wait for that first moment when she sees the castle....I've been dreaming of it for years....

Just feeling so blessed for health, happiness, kind strangers and wonderful wishes!

Oh yea, Character meal are GREAT!!! My dd is three yrs old and she loved Hollywood and Vine with Disney Jr. Characters

I finally updated Owen's PTR. Still no word from the wish manager, but his wish granters said everything is in motion. We are hoping to get some dates before July... our requested dates are for the first week of December.

We decided to stay at GKTW and really enjoy the village. We'll then extend our trip (out of pocket) and stay in one of the resort hotels at Disneyworld for a few extra days.

I am loving all your TR's and PTR's even if I don't find time to comment always.

Don't know if there are any other mermaid fans on this thread, but if so--new Mermaid Transformation package being offered at Pirates League this summer--in honour of the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Check out the DIS Blog or my PTR below for deets!

You should either buy them before you leave or from what I heard, the walmart next to GKTW has a good selection and we are going to be there the 2nd-8th!! AND we are from the ATX area!!

Yea, unless things have changed there is no GKTW or MAW autograph books.

We are not on a wish trip this time (our Wish trip was in 2009) but we will be there May 29th- June 3rd.

Hi everyone. We took our wish trip 2 years ago and shortly after returning home had to get rid of internet due to budget. We now have it back and I am so excited to catch up on everyone and meet new people on here. We will be going back to Disney in Sept. if anyone is going to be there during that time we would love to meet up with you.

Hey sammie girl,
Glad to see you back. Hope you are all doing good. How is your DD doing?

Welcome back Samie girl! I have been MIA for awhile. Our school system re-tests kids when they turn age 6. At age 6 they loose their Developmental Delay title. This is just in our district. The rest of the state keeps it until age 9. After 6 months of appeals it looks as if Tyler might get to keep his DD title for one more year. Other wise they want to put him in a Mentally Retarded (MR) classroom and bus him across town. It has been a long fight, but I think we are close to the end.

Post Part of Day 2, SeaWorld...Come over and check it out!!!

My DD is doing o.k. In the last 2 years I have went back to work part-time and enrolled my kids in public school. Public school is wonderful and very welcoming of my DD's illness. As most of you know with illness comes depression. My DD wrote a suicide letter last month with method date and time included. Thankfuly I found it in time and she is now getting help with her depression over her illness. I can't wait to catch up on everyone's stories.

Hi everyone! Just stopping by to say hi! The intro pages look great Maroo!!! You are so awesome! I did finally finish my TR, and added a mini trip report to Legoland and SD zoos that we did using our passport from GKTW. Now I am browsing around the DIS to refresh my memory of all the things we didn't get to do, or skipped because of the kids, because Tim and I are hoping to go by ourselves next month. We will probably only do a day or two in WDW but we would really like to go back. Anyway, just wanted to say hi. I can't believe how many new TRs and PTRs there are in the past year since we went. Wow!!!

I'm new to the boards and found them while scrolling the net for information on Wish Kids and Disney trips. What a GREAT site! My daughter just sent her information back to our local MAW foundation and is wishing to go to Disney. Patience is not one of my families strong points lol Everyone is so excited they can barely stand it and the more I explain that it's going to take a while the more they seem to bounce off the walls
