Levente - as the other kids in his age – is keen on „top” telephones, so his wish was a HTC One mini mobile phone.
We managed to organize a meeting on 27th March, when Levente and his parents went to a medical examination to the II. Pediatric Clinic in Tűzoltó Street.
Andrea Zs. Tóth, representative of the sponsor Firstmed-FMC Kft. gave the telephone to the smiling little boy.
We wish Levente successful studies and quick recovery.

Feri – as many other kids in his age – is keen on computers.
Since he spends a long time in hospital due to his illness, he asked for a portable computer.
His choice was a serious looking, black Lenovo laptop.
He got the gift in the office of Magic Lamp Foundation, where Feri arrived with his mother.
He was a little bit shy standing in front of the camera but finally we managed to take a photo where he smiles...

Réka is seriously ill, she has to spend extended periods in hospital. No wonder she was longing to own a laptop. She was waiting for her treatment in the corridor of the hospital together with her Dad when we (Andi, Reni and myself) showed up with a box in our hands.
She was truly surprised to see us there, and was all smiles when she received from us Magic Lamp's gift. She said she would use the laptop for her studies, but of course she would also peek into her Facebook page time and again...

Norbert lives in Nagyatád with his parents. He goes to high school in Csurgó, and is a very good student. This kind, friendly and good-humoured boy is determined to become a veterinarian.
He has been struggling with his illness for two years now, and is about to undergo a risky operation. Our initial aim was to invite Norbert to a conference organised by the Professional Women's Association (PWA), where we could have made his dream come true together with all our supporters and donors. However, this was not possible because he was already being prepared for his surgery. Accordingly, we handed over the laptop at the hospital with the help of our volunteer, Vera Doczy.
We wish to express our thanks to the organisers and participants in the PWA - British Chamber of Commerce in Hungary (BCCH) conference, held on 26 March at Corinthia Hotel Budapest, for their generous donations, which made all this possible.

Gordon’s dream was a bit out of the ordinary, and it took quite a few of us to make it come true…
Early one morning two cameramen and a lady holding a microphone knocked on the door of his family’s home in Kecskemet. Gordon had no idea of what was happening, but it already promised to be good clean fun.
And it got even better: he was driven all the way to the 7th District Police Station in Budapest, where a bunch of uniformed officers showed him around the parking lot stocked with police cars and bikes, and they even pulled out handcuffs while brandishing their batons. All of this was for show, of course…
The real ‘wow’ moment came when the district police chief and his officers lined up to give Gordon a whole pile of presents: a tailor-made police T-shirt, a police cap with a badge, a children’s storybook signed by all the officers on duty that day and a huge LEGO set.
At that point, Gordon was ready to call it a day, since all he wanted was to put all his gifts to good use.
/ 10
But then he was ushered into a police car with its lights flashing, and surrounded by a motorcade with sirens blaring he was driven to Madách square in downtown Budapest. A large group of onlookers – passers-by, bikers, grannies pushing prams – cheered as the chief of the Police of the Hungarian capital gave Gordon the title of honorary police officer.
No matter the gifts, the crowds, the cold and the biting winds – the little boy was over the moon when he could finally mount the battery powered police bike presented to him by Magic Lamp.
Words cannot describe Gordon’s joy and happiness… Up until the very last moment he was not aware that the whole day was dedicated to him and that all those kind and smiling people around him had one single goal: to make his dream come true.
Needless to say, that day will remain memorable for all the participants, because they share the belief that happiness heals.
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Lieutenant-Colonel Dr Szabolcs Kiss, chief of Budapest’s 7th District Police Department, Police Constable First Lieutenant Ferenc Szilágyi and all their fellow officers for organising the day’s events and for the time and effort they put into Gordon’s gifts.
We also owe thanks to Police Brigadier General Gábor Bucsek, chief of Budapest Police and his colleagues, and to the Budapest Mayor’s Office for granting the permits required to hold the event on city property. We are grateful to Bálint Bíró, who assembled the battery powered police bike, and to all those at Budapest Taxi Company who volunteered to drive Gordon and his mother back to their home in Kecskemet. Last but not least, we would like to thank all those kind passers-by whose cheers, applause and smiles made the day truly memorable for Gordon.
In short, a big thank you to all those who helped us make the life of a sick child a little brighter.

Lacika was accompanied to the medical checks in Budapest by his grandfather. I was waiting for them till the medical examinations were over, then we left for a nearby sports store to buy the long awaited soccer shoes for Lacika.
After some searching and asking for assistance we found the right shoes that were comfortable and Lacika liked them. A leather soccer ball was also chosen by the boy in order to use the new shoes, "to have something to kick"!
He checked competently and professionally whether it was hard enough and well bouncing.
Laci was very glad to hold the package in his hands, which included his both wishes.
He thanked the gift repeatedly, and his shining eyes showed his happiness. When the photo was taken, he also took his new soccer shoes and the ball enthusiastically in his hands.

In 2014 on the 15th of december on Tuesday I was waiting in the Budai Childhospital's Movement Rehabilitationward's hallway for Lacika and his parents. Lacika wished for an Xbox One from Csodalámpa, what he desired for a long time, because of his cousins he already tried it during the big familiy reunions.
At 13:15 the 2nd floor's elevator door opened as the three family member stepped out. After a short greeting I invited them into a small room. The little man was a bit surprised when the usual way towards the gym didn't go as planned, but as soon as he got his present , he cracked the long disered smile. After he opened it slowly, he examined all the parts and just realized that this beuty is his.
You can see him proudly holding the present when the photo was taken. Lacika, I hope you'll enjoy this wonderful gift.

However, there are miracles...
In the afternoon of 17 February 2015 I could finally meet Mirella. The only thing I knew that she was a 17 years old girl and her dream bike would be given by me.
Zsuzsi Potyondi, volunteer of the Magic Lamp Foundation helped me to hand over the present in a bicycle shop in Győr. As we entered the George Sport Bicycle Shop in Győr, Mirella and her mother were already waiting for us.
We all were excited, and I was thankful that Zsuzsi Potyondi was of assistance to me.
During the introduction I managed to find out that Mirella was a private student and she would like to become a waitress. Her best recreation is cycling, but her family could not afford to buy such an expensive bike.
It is a fantastic feeling to share the happiness of someone whose long awaited dream comes true. It is a heart-warming experience! Donating is said to be a good feeling, and now I experienced what a special feeling it is!
Thank you...

I visited Peti on a Friday afternoon. Of course, I had been talking to his mother several times by phone to arrange the meeting. The little boy was looking forward to receive the expected laptop, because unfortunately he often has to stay in hospital for treatments.
That time he was at home just for a short time, and a few days later he had to go back for the next treatment.
The laptop will be a useful companion in the hospital, it will take his mind off his illness.
However Peti is a very quiet boy and doesn’t speak too much, his parents told me that he is in second grade and despite of his illness he does very well at the school as a private student.
I wish you many pleasant hours with your new magic computer!

Bence is a talkative boy, but recently he has been interested only in computer games. So I was not surprised that he asked for an X-Box game from the Magic Lamp.
He was patiently waiting, didn’t ask about his gift, but when his friend told him that he had got an X-Box game, Bence was curiously listening his experience.
One day Bence’s gift arrived, and we were just waiting for the proper hand-over time.
He was sitting by a laptop when I entered the room with the large box. Suddenly he didn’t know what was happening. When I told him that I had a gift for him from the Magic Lamp, he was very pleased.
Bence carefully opened the box, then he and his father put the game together, even in the ward. That day the afternoon nap was cancelled in the ward, instead of it joyful laugh could be heard...

Bence is a 10-year old boy. He is treated in GYEK in Miskolc. Bence loves to play online games. Many kids in the hospital have a laptop, so Bence’s wish was a laptop of his own in order to play as much as he wants ... or as much as her mother allows :-))
And the djinn of the Magic Lamp brought him the highly-expected laptop. Due to the surprise and joy, at first Bence couldn’t tell any words but his mother said, if everyone leaves the room, he will jump for joy.
Dear Bence, we wish you many joyful moments while using the laptop.

Bence is a real "big boy" and a computer expert, but so far he did not have a laptop of his own. Unfortunately he could use only the PC of the Tűzoltó street Clinic to surf different websites to find some interesting topics.
Bencus is a very inquiring young teenager who will have to spend a long time in hospital, and time of the treatment period passes very slowly. So he asked the "Magic Lamp" for a laptop, and not particularly for playing, but for corresponding with his schoolmates, to get the news, and to find answers to lots of interesting questions by using the internet ... and of course sometimes, to try some popular games as a "relaxation".
The "Gini of the Magic Lamp" gave Bence the "surprise" at the hospital. It was an elegant and really "manly" laptop.
Unfortunately, due to the treatment he had fever at that time, but when he held the "dream come true" in his hands, he was so surprised that he could only say "thank you" very quietly but with a wide smile.
He set up the beautiful laptop excitedly but in a professional way in a few minutes and it could be seen on his face that he had been already engrossed in mysteries of the online world.
Bence, we wish you a full recovery as soon as possible and a lot of joy in the use of the laptop.

The wish of Tibor (17) was quite a big challenge for us, as he wished to meet Arnold Schwarzenegger and to have a talk to him.
Tibor said that the celebrity was his role model, so it wasn't a great surprise when he told us that he had become a bodybuilder for a few years.
We were a bit worried about how to fulfill this desire, as Mr. Schwarzenegger lives in America and our foundation can fulfill wishes only in Europe.
But suddenly everything was solved, since one of our volunteers and our supporter, Mr. William Benko introduced us to the chief organizer of the "MVM Success-day 2015" Mr. Gergely Kiss-Török, who offered his help from the first moment. The only thing we had to do was anxiously waiting for the meeting...
Tibor and his family spent the Sunday, 22 February with us. As they live in Törtel, they stayed overnight at Corinthia Hotel Budapest, courtesy of the Hotel management. After a fantastic lunch and a tour of the amazing hotel we left for the Arena Budapest, where the special meeting was organized.
During the show we heard a lot of interesting presentations about personal successes, and as the hours passed, we all became more and more excited...
Finally in the evening Mr. Schwarzenegger stepped on stage and told his own success story, from which we learned a lot of interesting information. He said that his life had been started in a small town in Austria and he also told us about his goals he reached until now and then he shared his "six advices" about the secret of success with us.
At the end of the performance Gergely asked Tibor to go on the stage and while exchanging a few words with Governor he gave Mr Schwarzenegger "his and Magic Lamp's" present a special ginger bread magic lamp.
Tibor could directly talk to his ideal, then he showed him a fantastic drawing that was made by one of his friends about the star.
/ 6
The governor dedicated it and added with a smile that his biceps on the drawing were much bigger than what he ever had. As for the gingerbread magic lamp, he really liked it, but added with a smile: "I will have to start doing at least 250 sit-ups, if I eat it to burn that much calories..."
Tibor will put the framed drawing on the wall of his gym.
It was good to see how glad Tibor was to have met the governor and the governor too was really touched.
We wish Tibor that all his dreams should be fulfilled so fabulously, and following the advice of Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger he should become such a successful person as his ideal.
We honestly admit that the realization of such wishes always means hard thinking and work. Many people think that such requests can’t be fulfilled at all...
However, we – members and volunteers of the Magic Lamp Foundation - always do our best for the success because we believe in our mission and we are sure that we will succeed. And we do!
Tibor said smiling that he was very glad, and that he had known that his wish would be realized because he came from a deeply religious family. He said good-bye by telling us the following "angelic quote" of an unknown author:
"Thank you too, but you have to know that faith can see the invisible, can believe the incredible and can reach the impossible." This sentence sounds, as if volunteers and supporters of our foundation would have said.

Karoly is a grievously ill young man. His only desire was a smartphone, which was granted incredibly fast by Magic Lamp Foundation and HollisWealth.
Thanks to the surprise Karoly stood speechless when he saw us carrying the little package.
While standing still astonished, his father thanked for the wonderful present. The previous day he had a little surgery what left him so weak even smiling was too hard for him. But not for his heart and seeing this, filled ours with warmth.
We are happy that we've been part of this wonderful Christmas miracle.

12-year-old Botond has wanted a tablet for a long time so he could play games and stay in touch with friends.
Sadly, he has to spend a lot of time in hospital lately and despite having his loving parents taking care of him, he believes that having this item would greatly improve his well-being and the make boring hours during treatment easier to bear.
This Wednesday he had no clue where he was about to go with his parents so late in the afternoon. So he was a little bit awed when they entered Corinthia Hotel Budapest where we were waiting for him.
After a short talk, we quickly handed over his present to make him feel more comfortable. As you can see on the picture, we made him very happy and we hope that this present will help him recover more quickly and he will spend joy-full time.

Dear Botond, we wish you quick recovery!

Lelle Anna (Anna means soul, mercy) is a 10 years old sick little girl, who has had a longstanding dream of meeting Pope Francis.
This dream came true in the 28th of January, 2015. Anna spent a few days in Rome, in "The Eternal City", where she saw all the wonderful monuments.
The best part of the trip was when she met with Pope Francis, who spoke with Anna for 4-5 minutes. Anna’s face was glowing with happiness.
This meeting has given her extra strength to fight her illness.
