Lacey was one of 80 youngsters to make a one -day trip to Disney World. All the youngsters flown to Disney World suf- fer from fatal of debilitating diseases such as cerebral palsy, cancer, spina bifida and cystic fibrosis. At Disney World, one child had kidney dialysis and another had a blood infusion, thanks to the 20 -bed hospital on site. The $55,000 effort began at 7:30 a.m. on October 31, when 30 volunteers and the children boarded a Vacationair Boeing 737 at Hamilton's Mount Hope Airport. A few hours later, the entourage land- ed at Orlando and linked up with 50 U.S. Navy sailors from a nearby training base, who accompanied them to Disney World, where they hob-nobbed with such realized on llow n popular Disney characters as Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Pluto and Goofy. The trip to Disney World was especial- ly meaningful for Lacey, according to her grandfather, who says little Lacey has come through a lot in her short lifetime. Three months premature Lacey weigh- ed only 1 lb., 13 ozs. at birth, then lost 12 ozs. following an operation to close a heart valve. Since then she's had to cope with the daily stresses of having cerebral palsy, and must wear a brace on her left leg. "But it doesn't seem to bother her," said Mr. Mays, "She's so smart, and such a polite and sweet llttle girl." The Sunshine Foundation in Canada was started in 1987 by London area policeman Ed Czech and his wife Donna, 18 months after their son Paul died of muscular dystrophy at age 15. It had long been Paul's dream to visit Disneyland, and before he died the Czechs made sure the dream became a reality, After the trip, Paul made a second wish to his parents - a dream that other kids with fatal and debilitating diseases could have their dream wish granted as well. When Paul died, his parents started the first Canadian chapter of the Sunshine Foundation, so that other lids would have the "same sunshine he'd had".
