When Libbi was 20 months old, she had an unusual, hard lump on her side that was diagnosed as Wilms’ tumor, a form of cancer that only 500 U.S. children are diagnosed with annually.
Life turned upside down as Libbi embarked on the battle of her life. A few days after her fourth birthday and several months since her last treatment, Libbi and her family were off to Walt Disney World® for a VIP wish experience that would exceed all expectations.
Libbi was transformed into a princess at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, took a horse drawn carriage ride and explored the theme parks with front-of-the-line passes. The Disney characters spent so much time with Libbi and her sister that their parents felt bad about the long line of kids waiting. Staying at Give Kids The World Village, a resort solely for wish families, and personalizing her star that will forever shine in the Castle of Miracles aside thousands of other wish kid stars are moments she will forever cherish.
