Brianna had the opportunity to meet with her sponsors on Wenesday July 18th to request a wish, we had a lot of mixed emotions and feelings...at first it's something hard because you don't want your kid to go through a hard time to able to request something like this, and on the other hand you can see the good hearts and love of a lot of people willing to help a lot of kids going through difficult times.
Brianna and her brothers were excited to go there, when we entered the building they decorated the room with one of Bri's favorite colors "purple". At first they explain how this organization started and then the showed us the wishing pond, where they gave a coin to each of the kids and let them throw it in and make a wish. Then they showed us a beautiful garden they have outside the building and they took us inside to play some games for Bri to see what would be something she wished for, We hoped to go on a Disney trip since she is into Princesses and beautiful dresses, one of her favorites is Rapunzel and we thought that would be something that her and her brothers will really enjoy. Later they gave Bri a Key to open the castle tower door, where she was going to put her wish... it is a beautiful room with a lot of different colored lights and one of our most touching moments was that we had to write a wish for Brianna and when we were in that room we all read our wish for her...it was a beautiful experience and in a way we know Brianna will not remember a lot of the experiences she is going through...we are trying to keep a scrapbook, a dairy and this blog to show her later in her life a lot of the good things her and us have experienced. Another emotional thing is that they put a star on the ceiling for each wish they granted, and you can see a lot of stars there, that makes you realize how hard they work to be able to grant a wish to a lot of kids and their families.
We just got a called August 6th, from her sponsors Ric and Jenifer Morgan to let us know they are going to make her wish come true and they said it would be sometime in November. It was pretty exciting for the kids to hear the news and seems like the doctors approved the trip and now we just need to get everything ready to go. November was the month when she started treatment and we think is a good time for us to take a little break and enjoy with the kids. Even with all the hard things we had to experience, we have seen a lot of blessing and miracles happen in our lives and We feel so blessed for our sponsors and for all the people and their willingness to give a moment of happiness to such special kids, we have felt their strong spirits and we know God really sends angels from Heaven to watch over them and us.
If you would like to send a wish to Brianna we would love to print it for her scrapbook, we really appreciate all the support you have been in our life.
