Passage Two
The Carr family of Wendell returns this week from Disney World on their first vacation ever, but the circumstances for taking it are one they would never have wanted. The trip was a result of the generosity of the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the nation’s largest wish granting organization for children with life threatening illnesses.
Kaleb Carr, 3, has cancer in the retina of the eye. After six months of treatment, he is considered stable. One tumor is now dead cells and the other is a large mass and doctors aren't sure if it is active or not, said Kaleb's mother, Holly Carr.
The family enjoyed their first vacation and thus had a week of freedom from visits to the doctor and worry. “They take you step by step through things so you can be worry and carefree and just concentrate on having fun with the family,” said Holly.
The vacation included a three-day pass to Disney World, two days at Universal Studios, a day pass to Sea World, lodging and free food from restaurants at Give Kids the World Village, a resort for wish organizations. It also included VIP status at the parks which meant the Carrs didn't have to wait in lines.
"We are having a blast," said Holly last week from her cell phone. "They saw dolphins this morning and Kaleb got to feed the dolphins." Holly said the village where they stayed is a fantastic recreation of the children's Candy Land game with events every morning and night after park activities.

A、 The Carr family is free from worries.
B、 The Carr family have enjoyed a one-week vacation.
C、 The Carr family planned to extend their stay in Disney World.
