Heart warming visit to Epcot

[Oddysey]

A friend of mine was diagnosed with a brain tumor in November of 2008. She has survived multiple surgeries, but the tumor continues to grow back. As a result, she is not in the best of shape and among many other problems is unable to walk.

Her husband took her to Epcot last week because she loves Epcot. He made a phone call to Le Chefs De France because that is her favorite resturant. The cast at Epcot and Le Chefs De France when above and beyond to make them welcome. They made sure to provide seating that provided adequate space for the handicapped, made sure to give them the time slot they desired, and even gave them a free meal!

All being said they had a wonderful trip largely due to the efforts of the Disney Cast. I figured I would share this because amongst all the complaining of Disney nickel and diming it is nice to see the mouse give back.

That's an awesome story. There needs to be more stories posted on here, instead of negative ones.

This made me smile, and made me a little sorrowful. Thanks for posting, I'll be praying for your friend. May I ask her name?

Her name is Debbie and her husbands name is Brian. They are some of the best people I have ever met, and I sincerely mean that. It makes no sense that this would happen to them, but then again cancer does not care if your a good person or not. I am just glad she was able to go, they had a great trip, and that Disney took good care of them.

My niece was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age 9. Give Kids the World gave her, her wish to visit WDW. She had a blast. So many pictures and big smiles. Unfortunately she lost her battle at the age of 12. She would be 19 now. I'm sending good healing thoughts to your friend and her family.
