What would your make-a-wish wish be?

Was a Kangaroo not allowed? Why has no one wished upon a Kangaroo?

Yes, exactly! Man I loved that game (wipes tears, emotions all over the place - head jerking, eyes darting, punches wife).

I would probably wish for them to leave me alone. My favorite thing to do is play video games and I already have a ton of them. If I'm about to die, the best thing for me would be to play as many video games as possible.

But if I am forced to actually make a proper wish, assuming I am physically able to, I would wish for some really hot Asians to have sex with.

If I was too sick to have sex, then I would like to slowly eat a very large amount of beluga caviar.

Ha ha ha, good times! I mean, wait, what?
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

About 8 years back, my developmentally delayed brother got one. He has epilepsy along with some other stuff. He was going to get an experimental at the time surgery to lessen his seizures. So he got granted a Make-A-Wish.

He wished to go to Disneyland. Not only did he get to go to Disneyland but they paid for him, my mom, me, my uncle (who's also handicapped), my sister and her husband to go. They paid for a limo ride from Redding, CA to Sacramento, CA about 2 hours away. Then they gave us a freaking huge, loaded, King-Size truck to drive down the rest of the way to L.A. When we got there they paid for our tickets into Disneyland as well as tickets into Knottsberry Farms and Universal Studios. They also paid for out hotel costs and gave us $1500 spending money. It was freaking amazing!

If it was my wish I'd wish to be paid the rest of my life without having to actually work. 8)

I don't remember exactly. I was in my late teen years, and he is only a couple years younger than me. So somewhere around 14-16. But he's mentally disabled, so 14-16 wasn't the same mentality to him as we were at that age.

My wife's cousin got a similar trip as well to Disneyworld while she was battling cancer. She was like 8 years old at the time and the trip was amazing. She got to have dinner with Cinderella and her own princess dress to match and she got to go the front of every ride line along with everything else. Make a Wish is a great organization, here is another story that's just awesome,
