"MaCollin's wish brought so much joy and happiness to us all. Our family had a lot of trauma when we were separated for 30 days during our daughter's hospital stay. Our older 2 boys had a lot of anger, sadness and hurt. Having this trip together as a family brought happiness and us back together as a family. It was so needed and has continued to give us happiness and hope for her future after our return home!"

On Friday, the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds spent time with about 30 wish families, talking with them, taking photos and signing autographs. It was a memorable experience for all.
