THE NEW PRINCE IN TOWN

Four-year-old Blake loves theme parks. He loves to ride the rides and play all the games. When Blake learned that the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of North Texas would grant his one-true wish he could think of nothing he wanted to do greater than go to the “Most Wonderful Place on Earth,” Walt Disney World.

Blake’s wish included several specific requests. He wanted to ride as many rides as he possibly could, play lots of games, and meet Mickey, Minnie, and Donald Duck. Blake, along with his sister, his mom and dad, headed to Walt Disney World to make Blake’s dreams come true.

Blake stayed at Give Kids the World Village where Mickey, Minnie and Donald Duck all came to visit him. He met Piglet and all the princesses too. Everyone gave him the royal treatment and he felt like a prince!

Blake rode as many rides as he could fit into his days. His favorite was the “Dumbo Ride.” But he made time to ride some others too.

Blake did more and saw more than he could ever wish for. For one week, Blake and his family forgot about doctors and medicine, and focused on the magic of Walt Disney World and fun and fancy it brought to Blake and his family’s life.
