Wish Kid Experiences Her Own Sweet Fairytale
Florida Girl’s Personality Shines Through Struggles
NAPLES, Fla. (November 2020): Ava has neurofibromatosis type 1, a genetic condition that can cause issues with skin, eyes, bones, blood vessels, nerves, and the central nervous system. Even with her health challenges, Ava’s colorful and engaging personality shines through in everything she does, the world is her stage. And just like her favorite Princess Belle, she dreams about having an adventure in the great wide somewhere. For Ava, it’s Disney World. Kids Wish Network, a children’s charity that grants wishes for kids with life-threatening illnesses, gave this princess her own fairytale, and she found out in the most enchanting way.
The perfect princess from Ever After Character Events had exciting news to share. Her royal video revealed that Ava’s dream was coming true - she was going to Disney World! Kids Wish purchased Ava and her family a generous Disney gift card that can be used for tickets, dining, shopping, and more, as well as a gift card to Hotels.com for their ultimate accommodations. Her Orlando adventure also includes a day at LEGOLAND Florida’s theme park, provided by Merlin’s Magic Wand. “Oh my goodness, my wish came true! Thank you so much!” said Ava who wants to go “now!”
There was another sweet surprise for Ava who also wished she had a gumball machine. She’ll soon be receiving a 5-foot spiraling gumball machine courtesy of Candymachines.com, along with nearly 900 giant gumballs! Ava’s mouth gaped open in awe. “When I get it, I’m going to share them with my family.”
“We’re so happy to give Ava the Disney magic she was dreaming of, along with extraordinary surprises beyond anything she could have imagined for herself,” said her Wish Coordinator Kim Kreiner.
