Mark in the Mountains
READ MORE

Mark loves being in Mountains. He’s always marveled at how he could be in one spot and take vistas offering calm waters, majestic peaks, glorious blue sky. This was a source of wonder and solitude..

Mark, his wife Grace, and their daughter Kayla  2 days at the Chateau Lake Louise Hotel, in Alberta. Being in the mountain setting with his family, brought fond memories of previous trips they’ve shared and given them the chance to meaningfully connect and take in the moments together as they had so many times prior to Mark’s diagnosis.

Kat's Wicked Good Time
READ MORE

It’s been Kat’s dream to ‘defy gravity’ since she saw the musical Wicked on The Tony Awards in 2004. Those around her, especially those that know her well, know how much Wicked has impacted her life over the years – from the songs to watching performance videos online, it was her escape and allowed her to be immersed into another world. You can imagine Kat’s excitement when it was finally coming back to Toronto on tour.

 

Oneday Dreams helped make Kat’s wildest dream come true. Kat and her best friend Megan visited the Princess of Wales Theatre to watch the musical, and as an added surprise, she went backstage after the show to see the Emerald City behind the scenes. She even had a nice visit with Glinda herself, Austen Bohmer. Kat’s dream experience also included a hotel stay downtown Toronto, merchandise from the show, and dinner for her and Megan.

After her dream, Kat sent us the following message: “Thank you for taking the time to listen to the people who apply, treating them with kindness and respect, and giving them hope.”

Special thank you to Kat for writing her own caption for this dream post 🙂

Together with his loved ones Megan and Lisa, and with the help of Oneday Dreams, Mike attended Game 4 of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Boston Bruins playoff series. 

 

Following their trip, Lisa shared this message with us: “We can’t thank you enough for the opportunity you gave us to go to a Leafs game. It was so memorable and will be cherished well after Mike is gone. Meg and I saw the sparkle in his eyes just to be able to do this and we thank you for the bottom of our hearts.”

Penny & Mitch Marner
READ MORE

Although she was born with a disability that left her entire right-hand side of her body smaller than her left, Penny achieved a 32-year career supporting and caring for individuals with cognitive and physical disabilities. Her disability never inhibited her strong work ethic and desire to help. For three decades, she helped her students live their best lives, guiding them to independence and providing them with educational opportunities they may have never received elsewhere. But outside of work, Penny was a lifelong Toronto Maple Leafs fan. Whenever the Leafs played in a televised game, Penny was their number one cheerleader. And like many sports fans, she had a favourite player: “The Magician” Mitch Marner. She absolutely adored him and when Marner was on the ice, doing his magic, the entire neighbourhood could hear Penny cheering him on. “That’s my boy! Go Leafs, Go!” Having her hockey hero pay tribute to her was like winning the Stanley Cup, her long-time friend Shelley told Oneday Dreams. “What a way for her to leave this world, as a recognized Toronto Maple Leafs champion,” Shelley said. So, when Marner sent Penny a video message, the tears flowed. The moment was captured on video by Penny’s brother-in-law. Her reaction, laying in a hospital bed, was one of complete satisfaction. Beaming, she simply said, “OH, MY GOD!” “(She) had us all in tears, she was so excited,” Shelley said. Oneday Dreams also presented Penny with an official Toronto Maple Leafs Mitch Marner jersey, which is what Penny wore when she was laid to rest. “Thanking you again (Oneday Dreams) for making Penny’s dream come true,” Shelley said. “We all feel she was waiting for that video prior to moving on to her next life.”

Frank's Magical Evening
READ MORE

When Carroll delicately broached the subject of a Oneday Dream with her husband Frank, she wasn’t sure what his reaction would be. Frank, 60, had been given a terminal diagnosis by his doctor in September 2022 and Carroll wanted to give her husband a memory of a special night they could both cherish forever. Having quit her job to care for Frank “and make his life comfortable,” Carroll says finances were tight. “It took a few months to talk to him about your foundation,” she told Oneday Dreams. But by reaching out to Oneday Dreams, Carroll was able to give Frank an amazing local dream close to their St. Catharine’s, Ontario home. Indeed, Frank was receptive to Carroll’s inquiry. He wanted a room with a view to the wondrous Niagara Falls, to swim in the pool, and enjoy dinner and a show. It was a simple dream, but one that would allow them to spend a night free of worries.
“I am grateful for anything good that comes our way,” Carroll wrote in her application. Oneday Dreams was able to give the couple a beautiful day and evening at Sheridan Fallsview Hotel. They also enjoyed the Greg Frewin Magic Show and
Dinner, supplied by the Greg Frewin Theatre company.
“Frank and I just want to thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts,”
Carroll wrote following their night of dreams. “I will definitely spread the word out for people to donate to your foundation as it’s something that is so needed with terminally ill adults. This means the world to us. Much love to you and all the people who work with you. With great appreciation and gratitude to you, love Carroll.”
