What would be your Make-A-Wish?

So, as I've previously noted today more times than I ever have in one day on this site, I have cancer. It's serious, as all cancers are, but luckily chemo and radiation have almost completely killed my tumor and I'm almost done with my chemo cycle.

As a reward for all this bullshit, I get a wish from the Make-A-Wish foundation, as I'm still under eighteen and apparently they do it even if you aren't dying. I was thinking about asking LRR if I could fly up and help out/hang out with them during Desert Bus, but I'm not 100% on what I wanna do with it.

Which leads me to wonder, if you guys were under eighteen, and were dying of a serious disease, what would be your Make-A-Wish? You can also say what it would be if you weren't gonna die of it, if it would be different from your wish if you were dying.

Also, the Make-A-Wish foundation has a few guidelines on what wishes can be: you can't wish for a hunting trip, an in-ground swimming pool, money, or for all your hospital bills to be paid for you.

EDIT: This isn't for ideas for me; I'm perfectly capable of coming up with ideas on my own, thank you.

I'm glad to hear your life is in no danger, but that's odd. The Make-A-Wish foundation is something I've supported in the past and their website still says you must be suffering from a "life threatening illness".
I don't know exactly what they qualify as life threating, but the doctors were very clear in telling me at the beginning (probably for liability reasons) that although the chances of removing the cancer were very high, there was still a chance I would die.

I think they prioritize it, though. I've had cancer since September and I haven't really been involved with them much yet. The people who are dying get their wishes much earlier, I'm sure.

Wish for a suit of armour and a horse. And a lance.
Then go RIDING IN TOWN.

I've been planning to get that stuff, but it'll take a while to get the funds...
