The Phat Disney Geek

By combining my love of Walt Disney World and my journey to a better me, I want to bring some hope and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions. Through the Trideum Foundation and the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Georgia and Alabama, you can help make it happen.

Through the end of September, I have lost 35.5 pounds. While most of the focus will be on what I lose from this point on, I want to jump start things by asking you to also consider sponsoring the weight I've already lost. My hope is to adopt the first wish with your sponsorship of the weight I've already lost. Please, help me make this a reality!

Through the inspiration of Mike Scopa, Lou Mongello and Jonathan Dichter I am training for the 2009 Walt Disney World 1/2 Marathon.

I'm also preparing for the first ever The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ race on October 27th, 2007.

In June of 2007, the board of the Trideum Foundation approved the first $5,000 donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Georgia and Alabama. This donation was go to adopt a child's wish of going to Walt Disney World. On September 28th 2007, the Trideum Foundation hosted its first wish party for 5 year old Tommy of Huntsville, AL. In September of 2006, just one day after his 4th birthday, Tommy was diagnosed with Burkitt's Lymphoma. In September of 2007, Tommy was declared cancer-free.
