When You Wish Upon A Star

When you wish upon a star...


Makes no difference who you are...


Anything your heart desires will come to you!


If your heart is in your dream...


No request is too extreme...


When you wish upon a star, as dreamers do!


Like a bolt out of the blue...


Fate steps in and sees you through...


When you wish upon a star...


Your dreams come true...

When you wish upon a star, as dreamers do!


Special thanks to A Life's Wish and
Disneyland for truly making dreams come true.
To family and friends for making the trip a reality.
To Mel and Leslie for their help before and on the trip.

  3. I love how happy you all look! I think about you all the time, even though I don't know you. Partially because my name is Amy as well and I also have 6 children so I imagine myself in your position quite a lot. But also because I admire the strength and courage of your whole family and I hope and pray that you all will be ok. I'm sending love and prayers your way. I love you!

  5. Dear Amy and Family!

    Heather Jackson is a good friend of our family. We learned about your blog through her. I loved looking at your Disney trip photos! What a beautiful family you have, and it looks like you had a great vacation! I am so glad you got to go create memories as a family!
    Our family knows to a small degree what your family is experiencing. My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer 2 days after you received your diagnosis. His cancer is at an advanced stage also. It is a challenging road to say the least. You are definitely in our hearts and prayers at this time.
    Love,
    The Hughes Family
