The other day I decided to go to the DreamFoundation office to meet some of the staff!

It’s so easy to attach your name to something but i really wanted to see how the DreamFoundation operates. I learned so much from going there and it really did make such a difference in my experience to see what it really takes to make a dream happen!

I saw the process from start to finish! I heard different stories about amazing people who have had their dreams fulfilled. People dream for, family reunions, health care, trips to Disneyland, to go to a concert, meet a celebrity, anything, you name it! The purpose of the dream foundation is to grant a dream to a terminally ill adult. I saw that there are different stages in a dream, and anyone can help!

You can go HERE to adopt a dream and help out with dreams that are in progress. These dreams are granted to people who are given a life expectancy time. The people who are given eight weeks or less, are put on an emergency dream list. Those dreams are fast tracked.

Seeing the pictures of these people made it all so much more real for me! And if you look at these few examples, hopefully it will make it more real to you!

Seth retouched.jpgSeth is a 39-year-old who was diagnosed with ALS and has a life
expectancy of 6 months or less. He was once an avid skier before this
illness struck. His dream was to ski again before he dies. Dream
Foundation aided to transport him to the Gunstock Adaptive Ski Resort
in Laconia, NH. He was joined by eight friends and had a wonderful time.

Walgate Family1W.jpgLynn is 38 and in her final months of her
battle with cancer. Her dream is to have one final family trip with her
husband and two young children, as well as her best friend and future
guardian of her children.

You can also donate your miles so that in reunion dreams the dream foundation can easily send family members to see their ill loved one. GO HERE to donate your miles!

    I am kind of new to all this but I wanted to ask you for advice and help. I saw you on an interview and you had said you started selling designer items from friends. Could you give me any advice on how to do this? I am a cancer patient who has just finished treatments and due to the side effects of the radition/chemo I am unable to get a job. I am a single mother and at times I had to depend on my 19 year old beautiful daughter. No daughter should have to see their mother go through what I did, but she was a real trooper and kept me positive even when I wasn’t. I don’t want to bore you with my problems, I am just trying to earn some money so at least I can provide for my family. Thank you for all your help and advice.
