SEBRING, Fla.(June 2022): Alexa’s seizures were unknowingly a symptom of her malignant brain tumor. Since her diagnosis, she’s been through a whirlwind of medical treatments, undergoing 30 sessions of radiation as well as oral and IV chemotherapy. With the tumor being inoperable, her latest scan will decide the next plan of action.

More than anything, Alexa wished to see Cinderella’s Castle and all the princesses at Disney World. She lives close to Orlando, so Kids Wish Network purchased Alexa generous Disney gift cards so her family can get annual passes for Alexa to experience Disney’s magic and excitement all year long. Merlin’s Magic Wand is providing tickets for her family to visit LEGOLAND, and Kids Wish Network is also facilitating tickets to Universal Studios Orlando, courtesy of the theme park. Having a year of carefree adventures will give Alexa and her family some respite from the stresses of her battle.

Many Thanks
