A wish can teach a sick child that anything is possible, even the future. Every day, children who are fighting for their lives make that life-altering decision about what is their one true wish. And Make-A-Wish is always there to turn their innocent dreams into unforgettable realities. In Hawaii, between 40 and 50 wishes are granted each year. At any given time, there are between 15 and 20 wishes pending. The most popular wish is for a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Florida; 75% of the wish children ask to "meet Mickey Mouse." Other popular wishes include computers, shopping sprees, celebrity meetings and trips to visit relatives in other sites around the world. Wishes Granted
