“Emma deals with seizures on pretty much a daily basis. She doesn’t walk or talk but had a wonderful time at Walt Disney World. Thanks to Sunshine Foundation, we were able to provide Emma with the experience of a lifetime! Emma was able to go on some of the rides, and she enjoyed a fun time. We truly appreciate the Sunshine Foundation and the dream they granted Emma.”– Emma’s mom
