T.K. gets his wish granted via Make-A-Wish Foundation

== Transcript ==
Nicole: "It was December 7, when T.K. was in the hospital room, struggling through the battle against Spina Bifida. His mother, Sylvia, decided that he needed to take his mind off his illness and decide what is the one thing he would want most after a close friend of hers recommended a charity which granted the children with terminal life-threatening illnesses called Make-A-Wish Foundation."
[We see little T.K., age 2 1/2, in his room playing with his Mickey Mouse, Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh, Perry the Platypus, Lots-O-Huggin' Bear, Tigger, Bambi, Kermit, Sulley, Duffy Bear, Donald Duck, Simba, Pluto, Olaf, Dumbo and Goofy plushies]
Sylvia: "T.K., what is one wish you would want to come true, sweetie?"
T.K.: "Wanna go Disney World..."
(T.K. hugs his Mickey Mouse plush)
T.K.: "So I can see Mickey Mouse! My birfday!"
