BOSTON — A Norwell girl battling spinal cancer had her biggest birthday wish granted over the weekend, thanks to Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Macy Burgess will travel to Texas later this spring for a clinical trial. Since she’ll be away for her birthday, her wish is to bring her family and friends together for a celebration.
Make-A-Wish threw Macy an unforgettable birthday party at PLAY Boston at North Station on Sunday, bringing together 75 of her friends and family for a day of fun and memories.
The “Ultimate pink and green club experience” was tailored to Macy’s requests, featuring a disco ball, light show, live DJ, chocolate fountain, tiered pink and green cake, and more.
Décor for the party also included a custom photo backdrop, balloon arches, and other special touches.
Macy’s wish is one of over 40 wishes being granted by Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island during World Wish Month in April, a month of taking action in support of the Make-A-Wish mission.
