I feel like silly food wishes like the banana split breakfast or the macaroni should be given as freebies while encouraging the kids to make a more serious, worthy wish.
It was the guy who started the charity to send other terminal patients on vacation having his first big month that got me, that and the 10 year old little girl with the chef. I had to turn it off halfway through was getting too sad :( God bless these folks...
11:20 The Destiny/Destiny 2 community does a ton of stuff like this, and it's all super heartwarming just like this story. I don't play the game, but I've heard a lot about the efforts of the communities to recognize and help people with wishes like these. One of the most famous is when someone had asked to see their dog in-game. There is now an emote in-game of a loyal dog sitting happily in front of your avatar, tail wagging and all. It's surprising how much wholesome happiness that these online game areas share, what with reputations of the competitive communities being toxic. I absolutely adore everything that games can do for people.
The community can be toxic, but in moments like this, they can be the most wholesome and awesome community. When Lance Reddick passed away, he was a voice actor for an important character in game, the whole community came together and paid their respects in game. Posting pics online, emoting in front of the character with different emotes to honor him. Lance Reddicks wife was super grateful, it was one of the most wholesome moments I’ve seen out of the community.
Crap dude! I really honestly don’t try a lot at all. Like I forced my self to cry when my dog of close to 15 years died. I knew I needed the time to mourn, but the tears wouldn’t come. These videos are the only think I have to hold back tears with much difficulty, you don’t mess with children. I’m so happy Make a wish is a thing, and hope I can make the life long memories those people have for anyone who needs it.
Story 18 (11:47): MAW: Congratulations kid, you just beat cancer! What are you gonna do now? Kid: I wish to be with crab. MAW: ... Huh? Kid: CRAB! Kudos if you see the irony as well.
The Merman one is available to anybody. If your kid wishes to be a mermaid or merman too you can check if there is a PADI mermaid course near your location. (PADI has a course for everything xD)
In South Africa it's known as Reach for a Dream. I worked with terminally ill kids on outings. It broke my heart each time any of the kids was missing.
The family with the kid who wished to meet Elmo should have just written to the OG crew members. I know Bob would have made sure he got to meet and great everyone. If you have a dieing kid who wants to meet Sesame Street characters just write into the oldest people still in production. Bob taught me they use to hire people, not actors. I’ve heard plenty of people thanking them for just being kind because sadly kindness is rare now a days. Side Note: Bob was capable of fulfilling his final wishes. m.th-cam.com/video/GLBZrLzIt18/w-d-xo.html
My mom and brother, Chris both got wishes as adults. My brother wanted to be baptized. They brought in a pastor and used the hydro therapy tub and baptized him at the nursing home he was living at. My mom wished to go to a Lakers game. She was given tickets but unfortunately, by the time the Lakers were playing, my mom was too sick to go so my sister took my sister in law and they went to the game while I stayed home and took care of my mom. My mom and brother have both since passed.
A brain surgery. Now that's cool as shit. Honestly, one of my favorite parts of nursing clinical has to have been being able to see a C-Section. You don't really do anything. I helped clean up after, that's about it. The charting nurse was watching me lean forward and thought I was about to pass out. "You ok?" "Oh! Yeah! Fine! Just trying to get a better look." Lmao.
I was 18 when I was diagnosed with Leukemia, and Make a wish gave me a wish. I was going through treatment at the time so I couldn't focus on making my wish at the time and decided to wait a bit so my mind was clearer. A month later I had my 19th birthday and celebrated it in the hospital. Well I was then given the news that Make a wish was revoking my wish due to aging out of their age range. That put me in a depressive state as my only thing to make my time bearable was taken away from me. Luckily I managed to hang in there and now i'm in remission. Because of the way I was treated, I no longer support Make a Wish.
Jesus Christ, seriously? If you were going to be 19 why did they reach out in the first place? Honestly feels like they intentionally got your hopes up by promising a wish, but then just taking it away and letting you suffer more. kind of like teasing a dog with a stick, but once the dog realizes they didn’t throw the stick they put it in the trash.
@@GrieferBT Yeah that really happened. I don't know why they teased me with it, maybe they thought they could grant it before i turned 19 but that wasn't the case.
@@Neck41 , there are also other alternate organizations to Make-A-Wish as well. Now it may seem like supporting them may be great, but they let politics get in the way of the organization instead of honor the SANE wishes of the children.
um... i have melanoma and im 13 so... uh yeah. this just made my day so thank you and if your wondering if i will live, i dont know so thank you this really made my day, thank you.
17:32 i find it funny that people think only “dying” people can get a make a wish, i have sickle cell its for kids who wont get to live a life like notmal kids who are like very ill but not always dying, like i couldnt do sports, be in extrem temperature, run, had to stay super hydrated, was in chronic pain all the time (still am but talking about younger me lol) and i didnt have the same quality of life as kids around my age, sometimes people forget cancer or dying isnt the only thing that can make a child unable to live a normal life, that there are more invisible illnesses that can make your quality of life bad
2:17 Ayo when I was 7 I was diagnosed with brain cancer also in 2015 and beat like 1 year after . But sadly I let my make a wish go away but I got another thing called bear hug and I got a Nintendo switch in around 2017
I am somewhat confused I remember 2 weeks ago on the am I the jerk channel saying this channel and the other one would be deleted and that has not happened yet so how are things going?
That girl who wanted a unicorn, seems like they could have just taken a regular horse or pony with a real sweet disposition, put a horn on it and let the girl ride and play with it for the day. I've seen that done countless times for perfectly healthy kids. Or at least let her do something regular horse related.
To the cancer patients or any other people that died after their wish were granted, I’m glad that they got to die happy. I fell like not a lot of people die happy. To anyone that works or know anyone that runs a foundation like make a wish for adults has anyone wish to have ether sex with a internet or instagram or tik tok star before or anything around that nature?
I got a wish grant and i choose........an enclosed trailer in green. 😆 its the only one of the size and colour in the state/country. Apparently no one buys green ones that are enclosed
You know, if I ever were going to die, in a year or two, my wish would have to be something like the fighter jet kid. Hell, I'd probably go with the black hawk kid, or maybe a UH-1D. Shame all the old vietnam war pilots are retired. I've heard stories about when the nam pilots came back and worked as pilots for flight medics in our area. They were absolutely insane. Story once of a serious injury on a highway. Power lines criss crossing the road. Field next to it is absolute mud. These SOBs bring it down in the field, hovering just above the ground that's too damp to land in. They then flew the helicopter UNDER the power lines and right up to the ambulance. The guys who survived nam knew how to fly, and I'd give damn near anything to ride along side them. Hell, I'd be crazy enough to enlist if I were born then lmao. I want to experience something that I'd, otherwise, never be able to experience. Or maybe I'd go the route of an experience I was planning to get, but due to my illness, would fall short.
Make a wish kid here! Yes I'm alive! I asked to spend a day with Patrick Mahomes I met mahomes and cried so much bc I love him that's Patrick ❤💛 go Chiefs
You’re lucky your friend survived leukemia my uncle didn’t make it Everyone says that he was so much like me. He had this massive Lego death star that was building when he was diagnosed didn’t get a finish it it’s his buddy’s made It for him even though he was gone
In short, Make-a-Wish is a non-profit organization that lets terminally ill children (18 or younger) make one wish, and the organization will grant it in some shape or form. It’s a really great company, shows that good humans do exist.
@@withinseven1762 , actually, there ARE international branches of Make-A-Wish and, yes, one DOES, in fact, exist in the UK. The actual name of Make-A-Wish is Make-A-Wish International and the division of Make-A-Wish that exists for the UK is called Make-A-Wish UK.
@@paxhumana2015 oh good I just thought it was only an American thing it's good to know that children all around the world who are suffering from their health can access such a great organisation.
My brothers friend made a wish for them to fix up his dads car so he could have it. They were going to get him a new car until someone realized cancer is taking one of his eyes. So instead they bought him a gaming set up, and mini studio. Rednecks also granted his first wish as well. Everyone loved his family. He’s still alive as the Half Blind Prince (Harry Potter junk)
this is why i wish i was sick XD bro, imagine getting to wish for basically anything you want! My wish would be to play on Empires smp. I don't care with who! They all are amazing people!

Cancer should be passed in a way the patient wants-living life to the fullest-you never know what might happen to them.
Like Walter White or Heisenberg 😎
its these wholesome stories but then so bluntly "they died (so and so time) later"
Story 11 melted my heart knowing that the guy impacted so many others lives. May he Rest In Peace
I think we should organise help for people with 4000 or less weeks left to live
@@1mol831no we shouldnt. (4000 Weeks is 76 years)

@@1mol831 people who use youtube kids need help more

The two stories about the people wanting to do nice things for other people instead of for themselves are the real MVPs of humankind.

Story 31 breaks my heart knowing that there's kids out there in the world worried about that kind of stuff.

Do kids with only 4000 weeks left get to make a wish?
That Ice cream sundae one pisses me off the kid deserved better
yeah i think they shoulda just sent them to disney
@@augustineforlife and they could of had a ice cream sundae in there room waiting for them that way the kid still gets there original wish as well
