Would you like to see kathleen?
Oct 4^th, 2006 at 10:51am

Kathleen was granted a Make-a-Wish this past summer.Our whole family went to Florida.It was the most amazing trip!!! I just can't tell you how many times I was reduced to happy tears.It was one whole week of kathleen being treated like a Princess.(I'm tearing up just writting this now). This is the most amazing orginaization,if you have children with MM you may want to check into getting them a "wish".Kathleen was accepted because of multiple diagnosis' she has down syndrome,heart issues,and MM,but I believe that MM alone would qualify.Qualifications are ,the the child is living with a life threatening illness.

Hi Mary Grace,

What a wonderful time Kathleen had and what a wonderful opportunity the Wish provides for children.

Kathleen is so precious. Kathleen's smile is priceless and says it all. What an inspiration Kathleen is to all MMers.

45!? Gosh, I like Mar, think you look georgous and look like you're 25! What's your secret?

Thanks for sharing your special family and Kathleen's special wish. Kathleen is a trooper and has had to endure a lot. It was heartwarming to see what a wonderful time she had at Disney.

Hugs,

Lore

Reply #7 - Oct 9^th, 2006 at 10:58am Hi Mary Grace, The pictures made me tear up, too. Kathleen looks so happy, and I'm sure the trip was just wonderful. It's great to see you, too, and to have a face to put with the name. I agree - you look far younger than 45 - lucky!!!!!! Thanks for sharing . . . . . Jill

Reply #8 - Oct 9^th, 2006 at 4:36pm I concur with everything everyone else has said. Your daughter is cute as a button. I'm glad she had a chance to have a bunch of fun. Can you please tell me your secret Mary Grace for staying so young? I'm only 35 and I get tired at 7:00 pm. I would love to just come home after a long day and NOT be tired! Michelle

Your all too kind! No secret here,maybe just keeping up with 3 kids ,all five yrs apart, and spending my day's with 2 toddlers ( I babysit at home). I can't imagine not haveing little ones around the house.
Michelle,my day starts at 5 am so I'm pretty wiped out at night I sleep like a baby!
Elaine say "hello" to Tammy and her family.Do you know is their trip a "wish trip"? Are they staying at Give Kids The World do you know?

thanks again you guys you've made my day,week and Year!
Mary Grace
