Many little girls imagine being a Disney princess, but few have the chance to live their dream. Josselin is one of the lucky few. She suffers from retinoblastoma and is blind, and what she wanted most for her 14th birthday was a princess party. The Make-A-Wish Foundation made her dream a reality with help from Dr. Lee Sanders, a member of her Stanford medical team and a CHP/PCOR core faculty member. Dressed as her Prince Charming, Sanders escorted the birthday girl, attired in a custom-made Belle ball gown, to her ballroom birthday party and shared her first dance to "Beauty and the Beast."  Says Josselin, "I can’t stop thinking about my big princess party. Now I feel happier than ever."
