  • Charlotte diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia receives her wish to meet a Unicorn.
    Charlotte is a 6-year-old girl who adores swinging at the park with her friends, playing dress up, and most of all, loves unicorns. She says that unicorns are magical and she would love to ride one and tell it, “I love you!” Make-A-Wish knew the perfect magical unicorn who wanted to meet Charlotte, too!
    To begin her wish, Charlotte, alongside her mom and dad, arrived at the Ritz-Carlton Sarasota. That night, the family enjoyed a dinner with all of Charlotte’s favorite foods! The next morning, Charlotte became a professional cupcake decorator with Pastry Chef Amy and her team; completely decked out in her own purple chef’s uniform.
    Afterward, Charlotte and her mom Estela became princesses at the Ritz Carlton’s spa. And at dinner, the family met Cinderella - where she received a unicorn dress and headband for a very important excursion!
    The next day, Charlotte spent an unforgettable morning meeting a unicorn! She finally got her chance to ride the unicorn and feed him magical unicorn food. The smile on her face was priceless. The unicorn and Charlotte were inseparable, matching in their flower headdresses!
    The fun continued with a trip to the Mote Marine Aquarium and a day at the beach. Charlotte and her family had a spectacular time and made memories that will last a lifetime!

    I'm a kid and I've got a depression for a year and anxiety for half a year my mental health was completely fine but just somewhere I felt sad I didn't know what it was I just felt down and sad I keep crying and crying and I found it hard to smile and everyone told me I was exaggerating and that I'm only doing that to get attention but everything started getting bad I felt jealous of the other kids for being happy I was just a mess but then school came in and man was that a ride the stress of the school and the tire was very hard I almost killed myself my mental health was really bad all the things that made me happy like animals,video games and much more and I taught I wasn't being myself I compared myself to my older self i was happy and excited but after that i was stressed and sad i had a hard time i had a hard time paying attention cause all the small voices keep arguing saying : why are you so sad you’re a kid ,but isnt life a mess ? It’s so hard don’t you wnna die “ no death is scary
    “What is wrong with you “life is bad “ ) it was a mess in my small head and I couldn’t tell anybody ssure it wasn't a medical disorder but it felt like it it feels like pain is crawling through your heart and biting it and you just have to take the pain it was such a mess then summer vacation came in it was awesome but then the voices started coming back and it got worse when my friend left me cause I betrayed him you see my mental health is sooo bad and my wish is to meet my inspiration the man himself shiageru miyamoto the creator of Super Mario and Zelda it would be such an amazing thing to happen I think I'd pass out if that happens I would be the happiest person ever

      Hi Naief,
      Thank you for contacting Make-A-Wish. Make-A-Wish’s mission is to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy. Make-A-Wish grants the one true wish to those who meet these two preliminary criteria: (1) children who have reached the age of 2-1/2 and are under the age of 18, and (2) who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition, i.e., a progressive, degenerative, or malignant medical condition that is currently placing the child's life in jeopardy. Ideally, we would like to be able to grant a wish for everyone, those with chronic conditions, allergies, mental health concerns, or those who do not meet our age requirements. Make-A-Wish's eligibility criteria are not intended, in any way, to imply that these types of illnesses are any less important. Rather, Make-A-Wish's mission and service population were developed to fall in line with the wish that inspired the creation of Make-A-Wish.
      If you would like more information or to speak with someone directly, we encourage you to contact the Make-A-Wish chapter serving your community. Locating Make-A-Wish offices throughout the United States and its territories is as simple as visiting the Make-A-Wish national web site's local chapters page at a.wish.org/MAWchapters.
      Also, don't lose hope; there is a wide variety of wish granting and service organizations located throughout the United States, each with its own unique set of eligibility criteria. Researching via the Internet, and contacting your community's clubs, such as Lions Club, United Way, etc., may prove to be beneficial.
      Again, thank you for contacting Make-A-Wish. We wish you all the best.
      Best,
      Maddy

      To clear a few things up. No it DOES NOT have to be fatal. NO make a wish doesn't ask you. May wishes have been granted of the illness has came and passed. Also make a wish while a wonderful and caring foundation is not the only wish granting foundation.

      Actually, for a bone marrow transplant, you do need chemotherapy. The chemo is used to kill all of the unhealthy bone marrow so the new bone marrow can be transplanted in safely.
