My name is Colten. I have been diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis, failure to thrive, and asthma. My diagnosis limits my eating and makes me weak sometimes. Being able to be outside makes me happy. My favorite things to do are play x-box, ride my bike, and play with my friends. When I grow up, I would like to be a police officer. My dream is to take a plane, go to the Sunshine Foundation Dream Village, and go to the Florida Theme Parks. I especially would like to go to Disney World to ride the rides and see the characters. This will be my only chance to ever go. The character I would like to see most is Mickey Mouse, and the attraction I would really like to see is Space Mountain. This Dream is important to me because I wouldn’t be able to go if it weren’t for the Sunshine Foundation, and it will help me have fun without the worry of doctor’s visits and my Eosinophilic Esophagitis.

My name is Olivia. I have a rare eye condition called “Aniridia.” It means complete absence of the iris … I am legally blind. I have to have enlarged books and homework. I struggle to see the TV unless I am close to it. I struggle on a daily basis with everyday things other people take for granted. I want this dream of going to Disney World so I can see all the characters up close, meet, greet, and tell them how much I love them. I want to see Cinderella’s Castle and meet the princesses. I cannot wait to be able to go and see the most magical place in the world!

My name is Shawn, and I have been diagnosed with Autism. I don’t have many friends because I don’t always get along with others, so I like to play the hero online. I want to help people like a superhero when I grow up, so I want to work in law enforcement or the military or become a cook. Cooking and playing on Xbox are my favorite things to do. My Dream is to go to Universal Studios with my family and see all the heroes that I look up to. Seeing Harry Potter World (since my Dad is British), Captain America, Spider-man, and Wolverine will be awesome!
