GABBY'S WISH - 7 Night Disney/Universal trip

Gabby is a five year old girl with an explosively, aggressive tumor of her brain and brain stem. On Memorial Day she became a patient at CHOP. June 8th brought her diagnosis: An explosively aggressive and malignant tumor called an Intrapontine Glioma. Gabriella Vogel's make a wish was to go to Disney with her sisters and parents, spend their nights at the Polynesian, watching the fireworks from the beach. They were going to do a day at Harry Potter Land at Universal, and take in all the sites Disney has to offer.

Gabby lost her battle with this horrible disease September 11, 2011 at 8:15pm. Through all this family has endured we want to see them get to Disney, make memories for Gabby's sisters (Madison & Katie) as well as celebrate Gabby's life and love for Disney! We know Gabby will be there in spirit! A Disney Princess Forever!

This is an awesome wish! It is just what WUAH is all about--people coming together. CalledtoGod2008, there is a Bible story about a woman who gave 2 cents because that is what she had to give and Jesus said that truly she had given as much as anyone else. Your donation means as much as everyone else's. None of us is able to cobtribute much but thankfully, WUAH has generously offered to match our donations. Hope to see this wonderful wish come true as a result! : )

By itself, I know that 19 cents doesn't do squat for you, but this is all I had to give right now. I am ashamed that it isn't more, but I am so glad that the foundation is matching all the gifts. I hope you don't despise this gift because it is so small. I am praying for you and God bless you.
