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

[danut]

Gabriella just got through a rough few weeks.... her heart went into rejection and after 15 days in the hospital, we got things under control. We are going to be watching her closely! Need to keep her healthy for her September MAW trip!!!

Happy to hear that things are under control!

ER trips are sooooo exhausting! Its a minimum of 4 hours there at least, and for us, 99% of the time it means an admit, so I wish they'd just hurry up and get us where we need to go. There seems to be so much running around and asking questions and wondering what to do there. I hope the nurse can help out!

We are doing OK here, Gabbie's blood transfusion a week ago made this week a pretty good one. Her Chemo was cut down to 50% so that helps too. She is undergoing steroid treatment this week however. She take 10 pills over 5 days, and its pill number 7 (which she took last night) that starts her on the anxiety ick feeling side of things. So we'll see how it goes here for the 4th.

Sure hope everyone has a super day!! No extra issues and just a day to forget the trials.

Thanks....Luckily we usually get by without being admitted. I guess it was super busy because of the holidays.

That is awesome that her chemo was cut down. I hope her anxiety is under control for the 4th and that you have a good one!

Thank you so much! It is hard to believe she just turned 13 a month ago. Those who play guitar always comment that she not only has the talent, but the passion to back it up...all I know is I love to listen to her play and can sit for hours enjoying her music. Thank you for your kind words!

Awesome news! Austin's uncle is approved to give his kidney. We are hoping for a transplant date this week, and hope to have it done by the first week of August!!!!! We are praying and hoping it wall works out.

I am so excited and elated for your family, what truly AMAZING NEWS!!!!! May your family have many more in the coming months, speedy recoveries for all..then DISNEY BOUND!!!!

I have a questin for those who have been to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique....

Gabbie's hair is growing back, she has soft straight hair right now about an inch long all over. Gabbie is black, so this isn't 'normal" hair for her, definately "chemo hair" BUT she is very proud of it, and quite the fashionista. Loving to dress up with plenty of glitz and pizzazz. I think she would love to do this. BUT, does the boutique have experience with different type of hair? Such as chemo hair? My other daughter would enjoy this too, and is black as well. Do they work with black hair? And, what package would you recomend?

Congrats, we were down there last year from Dec. 5 to the 11th. We had a great time and the parks were not crowded. I am interested to see what the crowd levels are going to be when you get there.

heres a quick question is the character meals if you are doing them prepaid or is that money in your expense check also is the rental car prepaid or is that also in the expense check. Does each person going get one carryon and one checked bag or is it smarter to try and carry all on? I am just barely recovering from almost getting foreclosed on and am in a bankruptcy so i was just wondering how much i needed to try and budget. ofcourse i dont let our kids have any idea its tight but i guess thats what parents are supposed to do right?

Hi princessmama we are also from Cincinnati, Milford area. We went down last December. To answer your questions from a local level here they are.
1.)Rental car 100% paid for
2.)Luggage anything you need to take with you all bags free since you are going through MAW.
3.)Character meals depends on which one's you book. Most of them you can book and pay for later. Some require up front payment. Cinderella's Royal Table has to be prepaid.

Hope this helps and when are you going?

Hi! Ever since I have started posting on this site I have realized how horrible I am with computers. I tried to post a picture and cannot make it work. I was able to get the pictures onto photobucket, but I cannot get it to paste to the post reply. I am through for tonight. I will try again another day. Synovial
