Hey everyone!! My son just made his wish to go to Disneyworld and we are very excited for him!! I have gone through and read just about every finished TR on here. I'm pretty sure I have too much time on my hands! I started Owen's PTR.. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2677570&highlight=owen+s+make+a+wish .. and I don't know how to add it to the thread. I just wanted to share and I can't wait to get our dates so we can start planning!

Welcome!
 
Has anyone ever shipped anything down to GKTW so it is there when they arrive? My MAW Chapter wanted me to purchase Evas pediasure at Walmart but she has the 1.5 calorie count with added fiber....Cant buy that!! Also it would take so much out of our expenses!!! I was thinking of sending it in a couple of flat rate boxes....:confused3
 
Have you asked your regular supplier if they can ship it directly for you? Just address it to you at GKTW and mark your arrival date.

I think it's cheaper just putting them in a suitcase and bring them with you. The airline doesn't charge you to bring medical formula. We had 2 suitcases full of formula, Pedialyte, and prune juice plus all supplies that go with tube feeding.
 
The Zevex super mini Eva is only 34 inches tall. She is 25 lbs dripping wet on a good day so anything bigger topples her over...:rotfl: We gat a good chuckle over it because SHE keeps trying to get up...I know Mommy has a sick sense of humor...I am the mom who will run and get a camera!!!

:welcome: To the Wish Thread! Can't wait to read your ptr!
 
I emailed GKTW a couple of days ago regarding sending medical stuff ahead either by ourselves or by our DME company, and here was their response:

[FONT=&quot]You can absolutely ship your supplies down to Give Kids The World ahead of time. Just give us a call and let us know what to expect and when. I suggest asking for someone in Support Services – they receive all medical. Be sure it is addressed to the Wish Child as well. Apria delivers to us daily, so now worries on that. Be certain your wish-granting organization is aware of your medical needs as they can assist you with this process. [FONT=&quot][/FONT][/FONT]
 
I got a call from our MAW volunteer, and there was a minor change in the dates.

Instead of 4/23 to 4/29, we are going down for 4/24 to 4/30.

HOWEVER, she offered us a late evening flight on the 23rd (which would bring us in around 12:30 am) so that we can spend all day on 4/24 there instead of flying in late night on 4/24!

This flight would be MUCH better for Hannah because she will likely sleep since it would be early evening for us, and we can all sleep in on the 24th (a mom can dream)! We probably will just stay at GKTW that day, relax, play, and explore there and get ready for Disney on the 25th! That gives us FIVE full days of WDW/Univ/SW fun before we have to leave :)(
