Default Re: The Make a Wish Foundation

Just wanted to point out that the kids aren't always terminal. The criteria is life threatening disease. I have two friends whose children participated in this program and their kids are alive and well many years after the MAW people did their thing.

Both families loved the program. It was a nice break for the whole family, especially for the siblings of the sick children. If you've ever taken care of a seriously ill loved one, then you'll understand that a break from it all can be wonderful.
