Princess Mya's Magical Wish Trip!!!!!!! - Trip Report Complete!!!

[kdzbear]

She is so beautiful! I am so glad you came to this site to share your daughter's story with us.

 

[myasma]

You have a beautiful daughter. Those pictures are wonderful. I can't wait to hear more on your PTR.

Your daughter is so cute! She seems to be a very happy kid. Even the picture of her in the hospital she is smiling! Kids are resilient and hopefully when she gets older she won't remember all the pokes, doctors, & chemo. I will be following your PTR.

Mya is beautiful! I can't wait for your trip!

Thankyou for all of these nice comments. I amm equally as anxious to get this pre trip on the road and start planning. Her meet with the fairies will not be untill the first week of June now. But I am still hopefull that we may be able to take her wish trip this summer. I have decided to take my mom along as she drives and I am still not sure about my sister.

Great News!!!! Our family has been picked to be apart of the Big Give!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am very excited and grateful to be aprt of this wonderful event. Last but not least I am trying to find a good travel list of things we need to take and I am trying to find out where to find some croc shoes. Also, how did anyone manage to make ADR's in the little bit of time that they got?

Wish Trip ADR's can be complicated...

But they can be done. It involves a lot of phone calls...depending on how many and where you guys want to eat.

Most wish families are able to get some ADR's or work it out so that they can eat some special meals.

Are you guys going to be staying at Give Kids the World? Do you know yet?

 

[myasma]

I'm not sure if we will be staying at GKTW. But we probably will. If we cannot stay there, I don't think I will be too dissapointed. I'm just happy to get a vacation!! Finally!!!1

OH WHAT BEAUTIFUL ANGEL!!! I just loved her pictures. Can't wait for more PT reports.

 

[myasma]

Yesterday was Mya's first visit with her wish fairies!!!! She wouldn't tell them what her wish was but when I sowed her the picture of Mickey, she screamed Mickey's name and started to laugh and giggle about disney. They immediately knew her wish was for disney. They started the paperwork and our next call will be dates and more info about our wish trip. Also we are able to take one other person with us. Our prospective dates is in either September or October

We Are Officially Going To Disney World!!!!!!!!!!!11

 

[Corrine 1973]

Yeah, your going to Disney World.

We're going September 13-19th so hopefully our dates will overlap a little and we can meet.

 

[HeatherSue]

I'll be there October 3-10! When do you think you'll get your official dates?

 

[myasma]

Most likely we will go during Mya's birthday week in October. So it won't be till the end of the month. I am taking my mom with me so we can rent a car.

Unfortunately I was given bad news on Saturday that might affect our wish trip. Mya was scheduled to start her last round of chemo on Friday but before she was able to start she had to have a chest Xray. Saturday her oncologist came to talk to me and told me her AFP had risen to 37 which is the hormone her tumor secretes. Normally it should be below 7 so Mya's Afp means her tumor is starting to grow again. Now we are discussing what course of treatment to take next but we are reaching the end of our options and unfortunately the odds of Mya of beating her Cancer is very slim right now but there is still a chance. So her doctor has advised us to take her wish trip in July instead of waiting untill October. I have to talk to her wish coordinater/fairies tommorrow. Do you think they will be able to move her up due to her situation? Please keep Mya in your prayers that she will still make a full recovery.

 

[HeatherSue]

I'm so sorry you got this news. I am praying extra hard for Mya.

I am so sorry. I don't even know what to say. I can tell you that I am praying through tears right now for your precious child and for you.

Please let us know when you get your dates. I do think they will be able to move it up to July.

We can give you lots of hints for touring in July - cool ways to beat the heat and sprinkle some pixie dust on your trip, even on short notice.

I have to go find kleenex. I am praying for you today.

I spoke to Mya's Wish Fairy today and told him about our situation and gave him the Doctor's reccomendation on the dates so our preofficial (I don't think that is word but...) dates are July 13 - July 19. He has to run it by the office and will call me to see if the dates gets approved. Keep your fingers crossed for us that we will be leaving soon for Disney.

P.S: I want to thank everyone for the kind words both on this thread and on the wish trippers thread. It means so much to me as I go through these dark days. Its so hard sometimes to wake up to the same struggle day after day but these words of hope help me to find my strength and continue to fight for my child's life.

 

[jessica52877]

I just wanted to let you know that I am praying for little Mya and your entire family!

 

[teresajoy]

I am praying for you and precious Mya.

 

[myasma]

I spoke to Mya's wish coordinator today and we will be going July 17- July 23!!! I have so much to do and probably won't get any ADR's but it doesnt matter. Im too excited to get to disney and make some memories with Mya.

 

[teresajoy]

I'm so excited that you got your dates!!!

Which ADR's would you like to get? Do you know? Because we are the DIS and I bet we can get you some!! and how many in your party?

We can make that happen...I have no doubts! Maybe not your very first choice on the first choice day...but if you will PM me some ideas and some dates and times that you are thinking...we can make that happen.

So I went on the Disney's dining reservation site expecting everything to be completely booked and was pleasently surprised that I was able to make three ADR's. Two of them were my top choices. I was able to make ADR's for Garden Grill for 7;15 pm, Crystal Palace for 12;55 pm, and 'Ohana for 8;15 pm. I was hoping and praying for a miricle for CRT but of course everything is all booked. I also have a rough plan made up of the activities we will do while down there.

July 17
Arrive in Floridai
Go to Walmart
Stay and relax at GKTW

July 18
Epcot
ADR at Garden Grill

July 19
Magic Kingdom
ADR at Crystal Palace

July 20

Afternoon: GKTW
ADR: 'Ohana

July 21
MorningHS
Afternoon: GKTW

July 22
Morning: US/IOA
Afternoon: GKTW

July 23

My main thing is to allow Mya alot of downtime during the hotter parts of the day and just let her enjoy the attractions catered to her age group. I want to make sure this Wish Trip is structured according to her likes and needs but I am going to sneak in some things I want to do.

P.S: The tripgoers are Mya, myself, and my Mom aka Nana.

Your plans look great...with one major issues...maybe? You have 4 days where you are going to Disney Parks...they only give you enough tickets for three days at GKTW...so you will have to pay for that extra day. That may not be a huge deal to you guys, but it is going to be about $75 per ticket or close to that...if you do 4 days in the Disney parks....

I am sorry...I feel like that may be bad news...I know you want to spread it out and take it easy. I wish Disney offered more days.


And I am working on CRT for you...I have a few irons in the fire to help with that ressie.
