Recently a young boy was asked what he would like for his fourteenth birthday. With a shy, hesitant grin, he answered unequivocally, \u201c A plane ride!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cNo problem,\u201d came the immediate response of the Ezer Mizion staff member who has many times before made the impossible become reality. And the wheels began to turn. Contacts were made. Meetings were held regarding medical needs. Bit by bit, the \u2018plane plan\u2019 began to take shape. \u00a0<\/span>And Amit\u2019s grin became wider and wider.\u00a0 <\/span>Unbelievably, it looked like it would really happen.<\/p>\n

And it did! Amit\u2019s fourteenth birthday was celebrated above the clouds. It was the experience of a lifetime with Amit talking to the pilot in exclamation points during the whole trip. And the pilot?\u00a0 <\/span>Soaring way beyond the confines of the earth and feeling a bit closer to heaven, he sent his prayers upwards to the Supreme Healer\u2026prayers for a young man just entering his teens\u2026that he be granted the privilege of growing to maturity\u2026prayers for life. Happy birthday, Amit! May you have many, many more!<\/p>\n

Summer camp for patients and their families enables every member to re-experience family fun and re-discover the relationships that have eroded due to the nightmare that had taken over their lives. Ongoing psychological support allows the patient and those close to him to develop the tools needed to cope with the monster named Cancer. Ezer Mizion\u2019s Petting Zoo serves as a backdrop for Animal Therapy where bunny becomes best friend.
