    Does Disney grant wishes for adults?

    Hi there, Parker. Welcome to planDisney. 

    I'm so happy you've visited us here at planDisney with this very important question. As a cancer survivor myself, I want to offer you heartfelt care and understanding. I'm sorry to hear that you or an adult in your life is facing a critical illness. I completely understand why this question matters so much to you.

    Parker, Disney has a long history of supporting children and their families who are facing critical illnesses through wish-granting and children's hospital programs. Fulfilling each child's most heartfelt wish through their wish-granting organization around the world is something Disney takes great pride in. Unfortunately, due to the high number of requests from children with serious illnesses, Disney is unable to fulfill wishes for adults at this time.

    I'm sorry that this wasn't the answer you were hoping for. Please know that Disney, planDisney, and I are sending you all our positive thoughts. Parker, when I was in the hospital, I had my own Disney dream, too. The day I won my cancer battle, I booked a trip to Walt Disney World to celebrate overcoming that tough time. I genuinely wish for you a special journey to The Most Magical Place on Earth, too! 

    Please visit us again if we can help you plan that very special trip. It has been my sincere honor to answer your question. "You are braver than you believe and stronger than you seem." – Winnie the Pooh.

    Warm Olaf hugs, 
    Shonette
