Friends of Megan’s who have worked with her at school submitted a wish on her behalf to give her family a chance to make a lasting memory with her. Megan is a mother of four young children, who is currently facing a battle with stage 4 cancer. Megan worked as a teacher’s aide for many years, and recently finished getting her certified nurses assistant degree. Megan has also been involved in supporting local youth. She has volunteered in a local program that serves close to 100 young children in our small rural area. The family has faced financial struggles. It very cold in Iowa during the winter, so a stay somewhere warm is a big treat to anyone who lives there. Megan’s children are young so her friends suggested that a couple of days at Universal Studios, with more days of relaxing at the hotel, might be the best way to enjoy each other on limited energy supplies.
Stella’s Wish has granted their request to send Megan and her kids to Universal Studios in Orlando and stay at the Cabana Bay Beach Resort. We hope that this trip will be a very meaningful and precious memory to a family that has been such an integral part of their small town.
