This past Sunday I was able to participate in a joyous occasion. Chi Omega, who partner with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, granted a wish to a girl named Candance. She is 16 but due to a stroke at age 4, her mental growth was stunted and functions today with the mind of a 4 year-old. Her was to go to Disney world and her wish was granted. 

Sunday, the women of Chi Omega held a parade, where everyone dressed up as Disney characters. Candance rode down greek row, sitting out of a convertible, living the life of a princess. Then inside the Chi Omega house, there was a pizza party where Candance recieved gifts to aid her travel and ate cake to celebrate. At one point, she started to tell a story about picking out underwear but was quickly shushed by her mother. Her spunk was evident to all who saw her. I enjoyed seeing everyone dress up and support Candance, especially other greek people. As an "independent" the community support was encouraging.
