Calling all heros! Please help my little girls dream come true.

Granted by Heroes: Elijah102, starann14, Yankeewomaninga
As many of you know we lost our infant daughter a few months ago to a very rare birth defect. We also have a fun loving six year old little girl who is totally crushed as she was looking forward to being a big sister.

We used all of the funds we had in order to do the right thing and give our daughter a proper funeral. The pain that we have felt throughout this all I don't wish on my worst enemy.

Just when I thought we hit rock bottom we go a call from a local grocery store we had put in to win a trip to Disney World....And WE WON!! This includes airfare,hotel and tickets. This is where we are in need of a hero : We have no spend money....They have booked us for Dec 2nd-9th if anyone has any change they can spare every penney really does add up. I also have the link for Disney Gift cards if that is prefered so the heros know where the money is going.
Please help me make this dream come true for my daughter she has always wanted to go to Disney but we could never afford it. She is so hurt not having her little sister here with us. I really hope I can make this dream come true for her she deserves this more then anyone I know.

Thanks teacupsmommy: I hope that your wish come true.

teacupsmommy 18 months ago

Congrats on the trip. I'm sorry about your daughter. I don't have anything to send right now but I will pray for safe travel. I'm on SSDI because of epilepsy and am trying to make ends meet. I have a medical expense coming up and I dont' know how I'll do it.

Can anyone else help us out?

Shannon- I un derstand why you won't but I REALLY would like to send you 10 dollars, we were able to get a few things that we needed but I can't delete my wish yet... We will be okay. God always provides. Now, I DO agree though, Disney World is CRAZY expensive!!! You have to eat and buy drinks at least! It's not about "playing", it's about the experience of a lifetime for kids and if people spend 90 dollars per ticket per day to get in they figure they can buy their food and pay top dollar as well, your situation is different but I'm sure you understand what I'm saying. Have fun and enjoy your trip, I'm sorry again about your little girl.

Yankeewoman: Thank you so much again....I will be sure to send you a pic when we return!!

Mikayasmama: Thanks for the comment perhaps you did not read that we were looking to pay for meals there.....It's Disney World and you won't need much money?? I suggest you go to wdwinfo.com and pull up a menu and see the costs of food there.

mikayasmamma 18 months ago

Elijah: Thanks for the offer but after reading your wishes I would not feel right about accepting any money from you. I hope someone is able to grant your wish

Elijah102 18 months ago

BTW, I know this is a little qhetto... lol... BUT just go, if you have airfare, hotel and tickets to the park just go. Don't buy anything extra, maybe even buy food at the grocery store down there... IDK if you get foodstamps but it will work down there too. Also, ask anyone who is giving you christmas gifts to just give you a gift card for disney..

shannon30 18 months ago

Is there anyone else able to help out at all :(

shannon30 18 months ago

Thank you so much Starann!!

shannon30 18 months ago

Thank you for the kind words Starann.... I really hope we come up with the funds to take her. She seen Disney on the Tv last night and her eyes lit up. I have yet to tell her about the trip incase we don't have enough money to go.
