A
special meet and greet was arranged
for Maggie on her first morning in Disneyland. Thank you so
much to Kym Andrews, Ruth, Lori, Josh and the entire crew
who planned a magical event for our entire family on very
short notice. Maggie also was able to meet the princesses,
and we'll post those photos soon. (Aunt Kimmy sends a special
thank you to Lisa who seems to have contacts everywhere and
helped us find just the right people to make things happen)!
This
is at our private meeting with Mickey, Goofy, Pluto, Wendy,
Peter Pan, Alice, Mad Hatter, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.
Yes, that's little Maggie in the center of all the attention.
These characters were just fabulous. Those who couldn't talk,
kissed her, hugged her, stroked her hands, made her laugh...
completely magical!
The
characters were taking turns telling jokes. We were all laughing!
This was such a precious gift not just for Maggie but for
our entire family who needed an escape from the daily life
of leukemia, treatments and hospitals.
Poor
cousin Nick... Mad Hatter really put him on the spot by requesting
a speech. We all gathered round, applauded and waited. His
speech was brilliant, "Hi!" More laughs for everyone.
Goofy
fell in love with Beth, who is a shining star just like her
Maggie. He had big hugs and kisses for her.
