Princess Madi’s Magical Wish!

When Madi was just 18 months old, her family’s world turned upside down. Doctors discovered a rapidly spreading cancer and a tumor the size of a cantaloupe. Within a week, she underwent surgery to remove it, followed by eight weeks of radiation, the removal of one kidney, and 32 weeks of chemotherapy.


Through it all, Madi’s sweet spirit shined. Now, at 3 years old, she is officially cancer-free — a milestone worth celebrating with a little magic.


Sisters, Sidekicks, and Strength

Throughout her treatments, Madi was never alone. Her 8-year-old sister, Mya, was by her side every step of the way. Whenever someone asked Madi what she needed, she would look at her sister and say, “Well, see what Mya needs too!”


Their bond has been unbreakable — a reminder of how love and family can bring light even in the toughest moments.


A Love for Minnie and All Things Sparkly

Madi is your typical three-year-old princess with a big personality and even bigger dreams. Her favorite things? Minnie Mouse, Snow White, Cinderella, and anything that sparkles.


Her room is filled with over 20 Minnie Mouse stuffed animals, and she loves getting her nails done, playing with lip gloss, and sneaking into her mom’s makeup. So when it came time to choose her wish, there was no hesitation — a trip to Disney World to meet Minnie herself!


A Magical Wish Reveal

To celebrate her upcoming wish, the team at Kendra Scott in Friendly Center rolled out the pink carpet for a day fit for royalty. Madi was treated to a custom Disney jewelry set, complete with charms she handpicked from the Color Bar.


As classmates, friends, and family filled the store to cheer her on, the atmosphere was filled with joy, love, and excitement. It was a beautiful reminder of how a single wish can unite a community and spark pure happiness.


A Wish Come True

Soon, Madi and her family will head to Disney World — where she’ll finally meet her beloved Minnie Mouse and experience the magic she’s dreamed about for so long.


For Madi, this wish is more than a vacation. It’s a celebration of courage, joy, and the power of hope that Make-A-Wish CWNC and our community help bring to life every day.
