Boy with terminal illness is given Make-A-Wish trip but sends friend

Disabled Levi Mayhew from Indiana was given an opportunity of a lifetime to go on a Make-A-Wish Foundation trip to Disney World with his family.

However, as the six-year-old is terminally ill and battles a rare congenital disorder that makes him unable to travel, he and his family kindly sent his friend instead.

And when Emma Broyer, ten, from Martinsville, who has helped support Levi during his medical struggles, got word she was going on the trip, she made sure to keep him a part of every moment... by taking along a cardboard cutout of him.

  2. Was Miss Broyer next in line for the trip from Make a Wish? While I applaud the gesture from little Levi to send his best friend, I don't think the next family waiting for their child's wish to be granted would feel the same.
