Since birth, Madalynn has had to take numerous medications along with breathing treatments and a nightly routine of airway clearance. We had monthly appointments with her doctors for the first two years of her life. Now at age 4, she goes to appointments every three months. At one of these appointments we were approached by her social worker and were given information about Make-A-Wish. We were then contacted by Make-A-Wish and met with two volunteers. We started the process of finding what Madalynn’s wish would be.
Madalynn loves a lot of things so it was hard for her to decide on one specific thing. Madalynn loves camping, dinosaur's, The Grinch, Encanto, and Frozen.
We showed her pictures of things she could do and she loved the idea of going to Disney.

Staying at Give Kids The World Village was so inspiring and seeing the magic brought to life at Disney brought all of our spirits up. Madalynn was in better spirits and was sad to leave.
