Creating a wish list is frequently "a source of inspiration for children undergoing difficult medical treatments and a positive force that helps them overcome their obstacles. A wish list is often more than a dream come true: It’s the catalyst that rekindles their belief in themselves, in others and the promise of their future." - Make-a-wish web site.
We asked Alexa to do this excerise recommended by the Make-a-wish foundation. We asked her to write down things that could bring her joy during this time when little has been able to do so. Of course, the first things she wrote down were - "world peace, feeding the hungry, and an eco-friendly environment," but then we asked her to stop thinking of others....and for her to think of things SHE would like and enjoy. We all know the saying..."the best things in life, aren't things" but let's be honest....things do help time go by faster, things do bring comfort, and things do remind you that people are thinking of you.
Below is a WISH LIST of items. If you or a group of you are interested in donating one of the items listed below, items can be sent to the Alexa Rae Fund at 63 Peninsula Blvd. Valley Stream, NY 11581. If you have any questions, please email Carrie Cliggett at carriecliggett@yahoo.com. Thank you very much.
