I didn’t realize how fucked up that was until I got older, but I’m happy I went with my true wish :)

I used to babysit for my neighbors in high school, and their young son ended up having cancer. He got to make a wish, and he asked for a dog. His dad had severe asthma and they didn’t have a fence, so Make A Wish built them a fence, a dog house, and got him a puppy that was a breed known for being less allergy inducing and trained to be a service dog for him. It all happened in about two weeks from what I remember. And the kid ended up so happy and with a new friendship that would last for years. Bless that charity, seriously. **Edit since this sort blew up: the kid got a poodle mix of some kind, small brown and curly. And after a few surgeries and treatment he went into full remission. I haven’t spoken to the family in a since I moved away, but as far as I know he’s still healthy and still has the dog

I want to clear things up- people who get a wish and ask to meet a celebrity dont always get to, not because the celebrity doesn't want to or because they think their "too good for that" but because sometime they literally CANT. Some occasions they are given a small time frame and just cant make it work, or their agency wont allow it, or other causes. Dont get me wrong, there are plenty of petty, rude, narcissistic celebs that do it bc they just dont feel like it, but not all of them. Always think the best in people, its hard but it helps

I have a cousin who has muscular dystrophy who was a Make-A-Wish recipient. He asked to go to Skywalker Ranch (where they made and produced the original Star Wars movies). He got to meet the voice of General Grievious (and play with the voice modulator), explore the props department (found the original Yoda puppet and original R2D2 unit), got a bronze Chewbacca bust meant for executive producers, and several articles of memorabilia (sealed Star Wars action figures as well as lightsabers) all signed by George Lucas. There's more that happened, but what's surprising is that Skywalker Ranch is like Area 51; you have to be invited, you can't schedule an appointment. He had an absolute blast and got to experience something very few people get to experience.

My nephew died from a DIPG when he was 9 years old, and his wish was to see the Pacific Ocean. He was too weak to fly, so, Make A Wish found an RV for him and his immediate family to drive there. He couldn't do much, but, he really enjoyed being there with the ocean.

Hi, this seems a bit random but it connects, trust me. My parents own two preschools around Denver, Colorado, and a couple of years ago, they had a kiddo who was diagnosed with DIPG. He was about to graduate from preschool and head off to kindergarten, but he died about two weeks after his diagnosis. It was... absolutely devastating for everybody, especially his parents and sister. Now, every year (possibly not this year because of the virus) they host a 5k in his honor, and all the money made is donated to DIPG research at Children's Hospital Colorado DIPG research. DIPG is such a horrible thing to deal with, and my heart goes out to all the kids that have it and their friends and family. If you'd like to learn more, it is called the Goddard Cares Fall Fest 5k in honor of Luke Morrin. There are also other children who had DIPG represented at the race, such as Ava Coleman, who I also knew, and Piper Waneka. If anyone lives in the Denver/City Park area, I would 100% suggest signing up for the race. There are amazing people there, and it's for a great cause.

It still does not make it any less horrible. The wish is not for the parent to have a grand time, but for the kid that has a chance or 100% chance of dying to spend the last of their time before they die because they need something special because of what they cannot/possibly cannot have like everyone else.

Because of this the survival rate for wish kids is actually a lot higher than most people assume.

The little boy I used to take care of, who died when he was 11, got a make a wish before I started working there. He was non-verbal so they let his mother choose. He was way too fragile for Disney and he wouldn’t have gotten anything out of it anyway, being blind and extremely seizure prone. Instead, i think it was four of the Detroit Redwings came to visit him and brought and set up a special swing and an above ground pool. He could no longer use the pool by the time I started taking care of him, but he did get to use his swing on his really good days. They also took pictures with him and signed them. It was one of the few times his mother didn’t complain about how he was treated.

My favorite KZreadr has granted kids wishes by having a meet and greet. He would play video games with them and just have a whole lot of fun. Some of those kids did die and he made a video talking about how badly that affected him since he bonded with them. It warms my heart to know that those kids got to fulfill that wish and see him. His name is CoryxKenshin.

B.J. Blazkowicz well that would take a lot of awkward questions to get the specs or interests of the recipient.

As a wish recipient they completely changed my life & gave me hope in my darkest days (found out I was accepted 4 days after almost dying from what was actually supposed to save my life) and just knowing I was getting one, really made me what to fight & get stronger! I left for my wish exactly 7 months in the day I almost died & the wish itself was the best day of my life! Honestly it gave me hope in those dark days! They are incredible! 💙💙💙💙💙💙

I have never been a Make-A-Wish kid and I never intend to (I don't think they even do it here in Japan), but my heart reaches out to all of the kids and especially some of their selfless wishes, such as the one where that on kid's wish was to make his Mommy happy. It broke my heart that children this young have to experience stuff like this

I've been chronically ill since I was 14 (though I didn't get life-threateningly ill until I was about 18) and spent over half my life largely bedridden and in and out of the hospital constantly. Video games have always been my outlet. I can do and experience things I will never be able to in them, and it means the world to me. So the story of the little boy who got to make the ultimate gaming setup made me cry, I can imagine how much it would mean to him to not only have all the games he could want to play but also a nice comfortable place to sit during gaming sessions so he doesn't end up in pain from sitting awkwardly.

My little brother was diagnosed with neuroblastoma when he was four. I remember when Make-A-Wish came to our house. My sisters and I anticipated three Disney princesses coming to our doorstep (much to the dismay of my brother who is the only boy in our family) but were a bit disappointed when we got a woman who reminded me a lot of my dentist. My brother REALLY wanted to go snow mobiling, but due to his condition, we were unable to do that, so we went to Disney World instead. We got to go first in all the lines and my brother and I got to fight Darth Vader (that was when I was seven and it’s been like ten years but I still consider it to be the highlight of my life). We got to stay at a village in Florida called Give Kids the World where it was literally like this little cutout from the game Candy Land and we got to eat ice cream for breakfast and swim in the pool and it was all paid for by MAW. Even though Disney wasn’t my brothers first pick, we still had an incredible time there. Thank you so much, Make A Wish!!!!
