Guest guest Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Hi everyone! I hope the New Year is seeing everyone well. I just got a call from Make a Wish and Maddie has been approved for a wish! I was in complete shock and probably sounded like an idiot on the phone- I had no idea how to react. I was so excited for her, and at the same time, the reality of the meaning really hit me in the heart. A friend of mine's son (who passed away from leukemia) had received a wish, and she put things in perspective for me. She said that just because her disease is life threatening, it doesn't mean that it is fatal. (Not today anyhow.) Maddie's nurse also reminded me that the future is uncertain for ALL of us, and that Maddie deserves this. (I agree) Anyhow- my questions are for all of you who have already received wishes. What happens next? They called and asked what some of her favorite things were (colors, etc.) and what her siblings like, and said that someone will call us within the next week. What happens when they come out to talk to her? I'm so excited, and she really seems to be as well. It really seems like she understands what is going on. Thanks in advance!
