Make-A-Wish Employees Share The Wildest Things Kids Have Asked For (24 Responses)

You’re familiar with the Make-A-Wish foundation, right? They’re the ones who grant wishes and pull off really incredible things to make dreams come true for sick children. There are few things that are off-limits wish wise but most kids ask for things that are really achievable for the wish-granting team. 

It also turns out that the foundation has a team of people that make sure the wish is really the will of the child and not their parents. It’s probably for the best to make sure no one is requesting a trip for their dad to go to the playboy mansion or something for their Aunt who wants a monster truck. 

Someone on AskReddit asked Make-A-Wish employees what was “the strangest wish they had ever seen granted,” and employees, former sick kids, and relatives all chimed in with their crazy stories. Here are some of the weirdest ones.
