A Whole New World Awaits Wish Kid

PORT ORCHARD, Wash.(February2022): The coolest thing Jameson said he’s ever done is go to Disneyland. It was a care free time filled with happiness and memorable moments far removed from the anguish of his health struggles. Disneyland was so incredible, that Jameson now wished he could go to Disney World. Kids Wish Network surprised him with amazing news. During a video call with his family, his wish coordinator revealed that Jameson’s dream was coming true! Kids Wish Network gave them generous Disney gift cards that his family can use for tickets, dining, souvenirs, as well as shopping at the Disney Store. His Florida adventure also includes a visit to LEGOLAND courtesy of Merlin’s Magic Wand, and Universal Orlando with tickets provided by the theme park. Kids Wish Network additionally gave his family a gift card for their accommodations so they can book their preferred hotel stay.

His mom shared, “After he got off the Zoom and the reality of what just happened set in he said, ‘Mommy, I’m so excited I’m shaking!’I can’t think of a better way to celebrate his bravery through his journey than letting him have whatever his heart desires in the Happiest Place on Earth during the 50th Anniversary Celebration! This is going to be EPIC!” The Disney magic continues for Jameson and his family.

When he was born, doctors recognized something was wrong with his abdomen. It was later discovered he had a rare birth defect called bladder exstrophy. He’s undergone countless surgeries, and has spent half of his life receiving inpatient care in a hospital. The stress has overwhelmedJameson, and he continues to struggle with medical complications.
