There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through."SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs.

ENERGY IN ACTION - EPISODE 069 Give Kids the World with Justin Kiser Justin Kiser is a dad to Riley, who is five years old and has a rare form of mitochondrial disease. The Kiser family was a recipient of a Mito Action and Give Kids the World wish trip. Justin shares details about their trip and what it meant to their family. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Can you tell us about yourself and your family? I'm a husband and father of four. We came into the mito family through my youngest daughter who has a rare mitochondrial disorder called ECHS1. She was diagnosed about three years ago through genetic markers after being born to her biological parents addicted to substances. We're not sure if her disease was hereditary or environmental. What was your experience as a recipient family of a Give Kids the World trip? It was amazing. The fact that everything was paid for, not just for Riley, but for our whole family of six shocked me. The trip wasn't just monumental for Riley- it was amazing for all of us and we had a great time together as a family. The resort was very clean, the villas were spacious enough for everyone, and everything was organized really well. We visited each Disney park, both Universal parks and Sea World. Everywhere we went, we were treated like royalty and there was so much care, love and compassion extended to Riley. What was Riley's favorite part of the wish trip? Her favorite part was being able to eat ice cream all day, even for breakfast. A lot of her favorite parts of the trip was at the Give Kids the World resort, seeing the star fairy and having her star placed at the castle.

For a long time now we've wanted to create an event that would bring together people from all over the Main Street Magic community to celebrate the magic, and create an event that can create and give back some magic of its own. To be able to help raise money for Give Kids the World and help some families come to Florida and experience the magic for themselves that we have all been so blessed to share is so exciting.This event is a way to bring our community together and rally to raise money for a great cause. Part social gathering, part challenge, part quest, Main Street 16 is a combination of all the things we all love about the Disney Parks—The rides, the details, and most importantly, the people. And this event is all about giving back to extraordinary people. Learn more: MainStreet16.com Follow Us on Social MediaFacebook GroupFacebook: @MainStMagicTwitter: @MainStMagicInstagram: @MainStMagicVisit Us Onlinewww.MainStMagic.comwww.WonderlandCrew.comwww.MainStreetShirts.comVisit our Partnerswww.MSMFriends.com
