    Hi, I'm Karla Blomberg and proudly serve as the volunteer president of Wishes & More and I'm "the Lady" in the video who 'doesn't like snakes.' I didn't think about doing it - I just did it because I knew that Maddie would love it and she did . I knew that my minutes of discomfort would be a lasting memory for her and it was worth it. Emily, thank you, thank you and thank you again from me, from Maddie and from Wishes & More. Doug you're a superstar and thanks to everyone who has commented with such kind words. After meeting Emily and seeing her video, I'm not surprised by the number of subscribers that follow her. Snake Discovery is amazing!

    That was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. It touches my heart knowing that children that were conned like that (IE; Genetics, disease, etc.) are able to see their dreams come true before they take that trip to heaven. It is truly amazing how people can do so much for certain people (Ones with terminal illness, mental illness, etc.) Even though this was not enough to fully restore my faith in humanity (In fact, i outright despise it due to the bad people who ruin it for everyone), but it was more than enough to warm my cold heart. Thank you for doing this for Maddie. Thank you.

    I am smiling so hard my freakin' FACE hurts! That was so good of y'all to do that; it was truly amazing. I kept seeing myself in those little girls; the very first snake I ever held was an extremely nice ball python that the local snake zoo, the Panama City Beach Snakeatorium, brought to our gradeschool when I was in first grade. I was the first kid to ask to hold one that day and if I could've kept that python I would have! Now I have three of my own, plus other reptiles; but I've never forgotten the weight and soft, smooth feeling of that beautiful snake. Thank you for giving that experience to others (and for waking a few adults up too!)

I'm sure if I had asked for a macaw my mother would've let me, but rats were out of the question. Recently I was given the chance to get 2 and I did. Before getting them, I was depressed and wouldn't leave my room besides to use the bathroom and go to school every couple of days. My physical health and mental health was shocking, but after I got them I improved significantly. My mother fell in love with them and actively tries to convince me to get more (I currently have 5). People are scared of what they don't understand. Anyone and everyone can get over a fear, some just aren't willing to do it.
