Ophie’s Disney wish was everything she dreamed of—meeting her favorite characters, sharing laughs with her family, and experiencing pure joy. With no doctor’s appointments or therapies for a whole week, her family embraced every magical moment, creating memories they will cherish forever.
A Wish Filled with Pure Magic
For Ophie, meeting her favorite Disney characters wasn’t just a dream—it was the highlight of an unforgettable week. From Tigger and Pooh to Mickey and the Disney princesses, every hug, every smile, and every moment was filled with joy. The character breakfasts were extra special, as she got to spend time with all her favorites, lighting up with excitement at every meet-and-greet.
A Break from Medical Appointments
Since her diagnosis, life had been full of doctor’s visits, therapies, and medical routines. But for one beautiful week, that all disappeared. Ophie and her sister, Georgia, got to simply be kids—laughing, playing, and soaking in every magical moment Disney had to offer. Their family treasured every second, calling it “so good for our souls.”
A Star That Lasts Forever
One of the most emotional moments of Ophie’s wish was making her star at Give Kids The World Village. Placed on the wall among the stars of other wish kids, it’s a lasting symbol of her journey and the strength that continues to carry her family forward.
Grateful for Every Moment
From the joy of meeting Mickey to the deep emotions of seeing her star, Ophie’s wish was more than just a trip—it was a gift of time, togetherness, and healing. Her family is forever grateful to Make-A-Wish Central and Western North Carolina, Give Kids The World, and the friends and family who made this journey possible.
