    God forbid you're diagnosed with a fatal illness. You get a wish from the "Make-a-wish" foundation.

    What do you wish for?

    A trip to Disney World?

    A personal visit from your favourite sports hero or celebrity?

    Go ahead, think real hard. What would your wish be?

    Now, don't you feel just a little bit greedy and self-centered about your wish? (I know I did)

    Make-A-Wish Foundation is a wonderful organization! Kristen Mercer Johnson is a home-town girl! Proud of her and the accomplishments she has made with Make-A-Wish. She is truly dedicated to the foundation. Kudos to Make-A-Wish and Kristen!

    I contribute to Make A Wish each paycheck through the State Employees Combined Campaign. It isn't the only one, but it's the only one that I have consistently given to for several years.

    What would I ask for? I have no idea, but it would involve my kids.

    That's great :) My daughter was a wish kid, MAW was going to allow her PICU nurse to go with her on her wish trip. They are truly a wonderful organization!
