Sometimes, the simplest wishes carry the deepest pain.

For 15-year-old Alvinnie Johnny Kota, that wish was to fly back to Kuala Lumpur, the city where she spent her early childhood, and finally reunite with her father after a long time apart. What made the moment even more touching was the fact that this wasn’t a holiday, a surprise party, or a family vacation; it was a wish born from love, distance, and the quiet ache of missing home.

Alvinnie, who is under palliative care, has been battling stage 5 chronic kidney disease secondary to congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract. Her condition is serious, and her health remains fragile. But even in the midst of all that, her heart held on to one thing: the hope of seeing her father again.

That hope was made possible by the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia, which stepped in to fulfill her wish and reunite the family in Kuala Lumpur. CWS board member Anita Chung took on the task of arranging Alvinnie’s flight and the necessary pre-flight preparations with Malaysia Airlines and Malaysia Airport, making sure she was safe and cared for from the moment she boarded the plane for her 2.5-hour journey.

And when Alvinnie finally arrived at KLIA, the emotion was overwhelming.

The family’s reunion was tearful, and the moment Alvinnie spotted her father, she broke down in tears. After all that time apart, the sight of him was enough to release every feeling she had been carrying inside.

It was the kind of scene that stops you in your tracks.

Because this was not just about a flight.

It was about a daughter longing for her father.

It was about a family separated by distance finally holding on to one another again.

It was about love showing up in the form of a plane ticket, a helping hand, and a long-awaited embrace.

Alvinnie’s wish had always been simple, but heartbreaking in its sincerity. She wanted to go back to Kuala Lumpur, where she had grown up during the first 10 years of her life, and spend time with her family the way she remembered it - together, over a meal, sharing the kind of everyday moments that become priceless when time is uncertain.

Her father works in Kuala Lumpur as a factory worker, while Alvinnie had moved to back to Sabah with her mother and siblings in 2021. Her elder brother, meanwhile, was preparing for SPM and could not join the trip. Even so, this journey gave the family something they had been longing for: a moment of closeness that no illness could take away.

And then came the part that melted hearts the most.

Later on at home, Alvinnie was all smiles.

After the tears at KLIA, after the emotional reunion, after the long wait, that smile said everything. It said she was happy. It said she was comforted. It said she was finally where she wanted to be - with her family, with her father, and surrounded by love.

In the end, Alvinnie’s wish was never really about travel.

It was about home.

It was about finding her father again.

It was about making one more memory with the people who mean the most.

And it was about a rare, beautiful kind of kindness that turned a heartbreaking wish into a moment her family will carry forever.

For one little while, the pain was replaced by tears of joy.

And for Alvinnie, that smile at home said it all: she was finally reunited, and her heart was full.

It was a Raya week filled with smiles and precious memories as two ailing children had their heartfelt wishes granted spending quality family time at a resort hotel, courtesy of The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur and the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia (CWS).

Both families were treated to an unforgettable overnight stay, with the hotel pulling out all the stops to pamper them and create moments of joy amid their daily challenges.

Two-year-old Muhammad Aafi Bin Dedi Saputra, who has been courageously battling relapsed neuroblastoma, was one of the lucky wish kids. Despite multiple lines of chemotherapy and surgery, little Aafi continues his fight under palliative care.

Aafi lives in Sungai Buloh with his family, who currently rely on financial aid to get by. For them, this brief getaway meant the world, a chance to create lasting memories while Aafi is still well enough to travel.

The second child, Ahmad Iman Khalis Bin Affandy Syahril, 12, was born with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that has brought with it a host of medical complications from epilepsy and kidney disease to visual and hearing impairments. But despite all this, Ahmad Iman’s spirit shines bright.

Ahmad Iman requires round-the-clock care, including medical equipment provided under Zakat. His parents, who lovingly tend to him at home, were overjoyed to have this rare chance to spend time together outside their usual routine surrounded by nature and family warmth.

“The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur is truly honoured to be part of this meaningful journey with the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia, creating special moments for these families to cherish.” said a hotel spokesperson. “Sometimes, it’s the simplest experiences, being together, sharing a meal, and enjoying each other’s presence, that mean the most. We are grateful to play a small part in making these memories possible. We are honoured to be part of something truly meaningful. Creating small moments of joy, big memories for a lifetime.”

CWS Malaysia president TH Teoh expressed heartfelt thanks to the hotel for their generosity. “It’s quality time for the families,” he said. “I’m sure Aafi and Iman enjoyed themselves, being away from home and surrounded by love.”

The Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia continues its mission of granting wishes for ailing children nationwide because even in life’s toughest battles, love and kindness can make magic happen. 💫

Little Hiresh could barely sit still in the car as it rolled up to Sunway Lagoon on the 1st day of Hari Raya. The festive decorations, the lively crowds and the promise of water slides had him grinning from ear to ear – today wasn’t just Raya, it was also his special birthday outing with his two cousins and his beloved family.

Thanks to a thoughtful wish arranged for him, this bubbly boy who suffers from advanced brain cancer. He loves splash parks and finally got the chance to enjoy a day that was all about fun, laughter and making memories with the people he loved most.

The moment they walked through the entrance, Hiresh had only one mission: get into the water as fast as possible. While the adults were still figuring out where to sit and put their bags, he had already rushed to change into his swimwear, eager to dive straight into the action. His cousins were quick to follow, and in no time, the three of them were marching gleefully towards the Cabana, ready for a splashing good time under the bright Raya sun.

The theme park was buzzing with life – the sound of children squealing on the slides, water cannons firing, and waves crashing created the perfect soundtrack for his big day. For a boy who has been bravely going through hospital visits and treatments, this felt like stepping into another world where the only things that mattered were slides, splashes and smiles. Every spray of water across his face, every giggle from his cousins, and every shout of excitement from his family watching nearby made his heart feel lighter than ever.

Then came the moment everyone had been secretly waiting for. As Hiresh stepped out from the pool for a short break, he was greeted with a beautiful birthday cake, candles flickering gently as his family and the team around him broke into a loud and cheerful “Happy Birthday” song. Sunway Lagoon and the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia had teamed up to throw him a surprise birthday party right there in the park, turning an already fun outing into a celebration he would never forget.

His eyes lit up as everyone sang, some off-key, some laughing halfway through the lyrics, but all pouring their hearts into making him feel loved. When he blew out the candles, he didn’t just make a wish – in that moment, he was the happiest boy in the park, surrounded by the people who had been by his side through every tough day and every hospital corridor. The cake was cut, shared and quickly devoured, with icing ending up on little noses and cheeks as the kids couldn’t wait to get back into the water.

Among the crowd that day was CWS volunteer Alvira Benedict, who had lovingly coordinated the entire outing with Sunway Lagoon's Sherena Ann just to see that bright smile on Hiresh’s face. She had planned to stay relatively dry and “professional”, but the joy in the air was contagious. Before long, she bravely decided to wade into the knee-deep water to join the kids, laughing as she stepped carefully into the pool.

Big mistake – but the best kind.

The moment Hiresh spotted her in the water, his playful side took over. With a cheeky grin, he teamed up with his cousins and launched a full-on splash attack towards Alvira. Wave after wave of water crashed into her as the three little “water warriors” shrieked with laughter, completely soaking her from front to back. Any hope of staying dry vanished instantly, but Alvira couldn’t stop laughing as she tried (and failed) to dodge their splashes.

For everyone watching, it was a simple scene – kids splashing a grown-up in a pool. But for those who knew what Hiresh had been going through, it meant so much more. It was the sight of a child, burdened by illness and treatment, getting the chance to just be a kid again. No hospital gowns, no scary machines, no quiet rooms – only water, joy and the freedom to play without worry.

CWS Malaysia president TH Teoh thanked Sunway Lagoon for graciously hosting the outing and putting heartwarming details into planning his birthday party. "Bringing smiles back to children who are challenged with life-threatening illnesses is our continued mission with Sunway Lagoon. Terima Kasih!!" he said.

For Hiresh's family, the outing at Sunway Lagoon was more than just a Raya celebration or a birthday party. It was a precious chapter in Hiresh’s journey, a day where his bravery met pure joy, and where the kindness of strangers helped turn a simple wish into a beautiful reality. As they walked out of the park, hand in hand, one thing was clear: this was a Raya and a birthday that they would remember forever – and in the middle of it all was a little boy whose smile shone brighter than any firework in the sky.

Even before the Hari Raya decorations went up, 18-year-old Danisha Hanim already knew what she wanted most this festive season - a brand new handphone to capture precious moments with her family.

For years, Danisha, who suffers from end-stage renal failure secondary to bilateral hypoplastic kidneys, has relied on her old 7-year-old phone for entertainment while travelling from Kedah to Penang Hospital three times a week for dialysis. The tiring routine never stopped her from staying cheerful, even as she spent countless hours hooked up to a dialysis machine.

So when Danisha shared her wish with the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia (CWS Malaysia), her dream came true.

When the CWS team met Danisha after one of her dialysis sessions at Penang Hospital, CWS Malaysia president TH Teoh had a special challenge for her - to use her brand-new phone to film a TikTok video about her family’s Hari Raya celebrations this year.

“Now you can be your own TikTok director for Raya,” he told her with a smile.

Moments later, Danisha could hardly hold back her excitement as CWS Malaysia vice-president Kelvin Chew handed her the gleaming new smartphone at the hospital lobby. Her face lit up brighter than the Hari Raya lights she plans to film soon.

“I promise to record our Raya morning together. Terima Kasih,” she said with a shy smile.

Although Danisha isn’t eligible for a kidney transplant, she continues to face life with courage and positivity proving that even through pain, joy can still shine through with a little kindness and hope.

Thanks to CWS Malaysia, this Raya, Danisha’s biggest gift isn’t just the phone, it’s the chance to tell her own story and share the happiness of her family with the world.

The distant wail of a fire engine siren had always made little Muhammad Daniel Hakeem bin Shahrul Nizam light up with joy. From the window of his home, the three-year-old would press his tiny palms against the glass and watch in awe as the bright red truck sped past.

“Abah, one day I’ll be a fireman too,” he would say earnestly — a child’s dream spoken with pure, innocent certainty.

But this time, Daniel didn’t have to run to the window. The siren from Balai Bomba & Penyelamat Seri Kembangan came to him.

Daniel had been warded in the paediatric intensive care unit (ICU) for more than a week, fighting bravely against chronic dilated cardiomyopathy, a serious heart condition that had weakened his young heart. Despite the tubes and monitors surrounding him, his fascination with fire engines never faded.

When the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia (CWS Malaysia) learned about Daniel’s dream, the team moved swiftly. In less than 48 hours, they made what they fondly called an “emergency call to 994” — not for a fire, but to deliver a wish.

The Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia responded without hesitation.

That morning, the narrow hospital corridor filled with warmth and emotion as a group of uniformed firemen arrived — carrying a mini fire truck, a child-sized fireman’s uniform, and hearts wide open.

Inside Daniel’s ICU room, time seemed to pause. Everyone including his parents stood quietly as the nurses carefully helped Daniel into his little red uniform. The jacket hung loosely over his frail frame, but his small smile said it all. For that moment, he wasn’t a patient — he was one of them, Malaysia’s youngest firefighter.

The firemen saluted him, placing a helmet gently on his head and handing him duit raya as a token of brotherhood. Around his bed, tears and smiles mingled freely. It was a scene that deeply moved everyone present — medical staff, family, and firemen alike.

For those few precious minutes, a critically ill child’s greatest wish came true.

It was a day when heroes met a little hero of their own — a child whose courage shone brighter than any flame.

“Moments like this remind us why we do what we do,” said TH Teoh, president of the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia. “To see Daniel smile, even for a short while, was a gift to everyone in that room. Every wish we fulfill is a reminder that hope — no matter how small — can bring comfort and strength to a child and their family.”

The Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia, based in Subang Jaya, continues its mission of granting wishes to critically and chronically ill children nationwide — turning fleeting dreams into lasting memories of love and courage.

It was the morning of Chap Goh Meh (the 15th and final day of Chinese New Year), and a simple wish turned into a heart-melting family moment at Zoo Negara.

“𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐬”
Five-and-a-half year old Ariq Ammar Rizqin is battling Pre-B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, and the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia (CWS Malaysia) rallied early today to make his wish come true.

Ariq had wished to visit Zoo Negara to say hello to the Giant Pandas and this morning, he finally got to see Chen Xing (male) and Xiao Yue (female) up close in their special enclosure.

𝐀 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬
Not only did Ariq get to see the pandas, he also had a whale of a time exploring the zoo and meeting all kinds of animals with his family members, CWS Malaysia and volunteers who came along.

Behind the smiles is a story of resilience too; Ariq has been cared for by his grandmother and family after losing his parents to Covid-19 when he was just one year old.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡
CWS Malaysia has been granting wishes for children with life-threatening illnesses since 2008, and moments like this are exactly why volunteers keep showing up because joy can be medicine, even for a day.

On the second day of Chinese New Year, while many families were out making festive memories, a 6-year-old boy from Kuala Lumpur was given something priceless: a day that felt like childhood again.

Muhammad Dafiq Raiqal bin Ros Zaimi was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) in March 2025, a rare and aggressive brain tumour that has changed his life in ways no child should ever have to face. Today, Dafiq is wheelchair-bound and has right-sided weakness, making even simple moments harder than they used to be.

But thanks to Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia, Dafiq’s world opened up in the most magical way with dinosaurs.

𝐀 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞

Dafiq’s wish was fulfilled with a special visit to Dino Desert at Dinosaur Park, Monkeys Canopy in Sungai Long. For one beautiful day, it wasn’t about appointments, treatments, or limitations. It was about wonder, excitement, and that spark in a child’s eyes when something unbelievable feels real.

As he strolled through the park, he took in the towering “prehistoric” sights around him, the kind of experience that makes you forget everything else for a while.

When the “animals” moved, his heart skipped a beat
And then came the moment that made it all feel even more real.

Some of the dinosaurs didn’t just stand there, they moved. They growled. They came alive.

For a second, Dafiq got a little worried (and honestly, who wouldn’t?). But that’s what made it so special: it wasn’t just a display, it was an experience. The kind of nervous giggle, wide-eyed pause, and brave curiosity that makes childhood memories stick for life.

𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐮𝐭

People often say it’s “just a trip” or “just an outing”, but for families walking through a diagnosis like DIPG, moments like these are everything. A wish fulfilled can become a lifeline; a bright, unforgettable chapter in the middle of an exhausting storm.

That second day of Chinese New Year, Dafiq didn’t just visit a dinosaur park.

He got to be a kid having the time of his life even if the dinosaurs were a little too convincing.

In a heartwarming celebration of resilience and family bonds, the Children's Wish Society of Malaysia (CWSM) teamed up with Sunway Putra Hotel to grant the special wish of eight-year-old Muhammad Iman Dzikri Muhammad Zulfitri, a brave fighter currently battling a relapse of Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Under CWS Malaysia’s board member Nancy Nais and the hotel’s care, cheerful Iman – the eldest of three siblings, including a three-year-old brother and a newborn lit up with excitement during his dream staycation at the luxurious Kuala Lumpur hotel.

Despite his intense medical journey and the family's financial strains, Iman remains a bundle of joy. He loves simple pleasures like playing with his siblings and cousins, devouring instant noodles (Maggi), sausages, eggs, and watching mukbang videos. "I want to be a chef one day!" he shared, his eyes sparkling with aspiration.

The highlight? A hands-on cooking session with Sunway Putra Hotel's talented chefs, where Iman donned a mini chef's hat and whipped up delights alongside the pros. The day culminated in a custom-decorated cake just for him and his family, creating precious memories amid their limited opportunities for outings.

"This wish wasn't just about a hotel stay – it was about giving Iman and his family a taste of happiness, good food, and togetherness," Nancy said. For Iman, who isn't attending school right now, the experience fueled his culinary dreams and reminded everyone of the power of joy in tough times.

Sunway Putra Hotel's partnership underscores their commitment to community causes, turning a child's wish into an unforgettable adventure. As Iman returns home with full bellies and fuller hearts, his story inspires us all to cherish the little moments that matter most.

Twelve-year-old Hemakumar A/L Manimuthi’s long-held wish to experience a flight finally came true when the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia arranged his maiden journey to Langkawi. The memorable trip included a Batik Air flight, a three-day stay at Berjaya Langkawi Resort, and an island-hopping adventure that left him beaming with excitement.

𝐀 𝐖𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭
Hemakumar, described by his doctors as a cheerful boy, had expressed a simple but heartfelt dream: to travel on an aeroplane at least once with his family. His case was referred to the wish-granting team with details of his medical conditions, including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and Caudal Regression Syndrome.

𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐰𝐢
With the society’s help, Hemakumar boarded Batik Air for his very first flight—destination: the “mystical isle” of Langkawi. During the trip, the airline crew made the moment even more special by posing for a photo with him just before he disembarked, creating a keepsake to remember his milestone day.

𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐲
In Langkawi, Hemakumar spent three days at Berjaya Langkawi Resort, where the hotel team warmly pampered him throughout his stay. He also got to experience island hopping by boat, taking in Langkawi’s coastal sights up close.

𝐖𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐬, 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬
One of the brightest highlights came on the water: Hemakumar lit up with delight whenever the boat rose and dipped over the waves, turning each splash into laughter and wide-eyed wonder. For a child whose wish was simply to feel what many take for granted, each moment—airborne and at sea—became proof that hope can arrive in the most uplifting ways.

The Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia (CWS Malaysia) is a Subang Jaya based charity that raises public funds to help fulfil wishes for seriously ill children—bringing a much-needed spark of light during what it calls a child’s “darkest hour.”

For nine-month-old Zul Hafif bin Zul Hazizi Al Yusoff Abidin, joy often comes in the form of birds flying past his window. On a recent day, thanks to the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia and Sunway Lagoon, that joy took flight beyond the confines of his home and hospital routines.

Zul Hafif lives with Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease, including dextrocardia with severe Ebstein anomaly, a hypoplastic right ventricle resulting in a single-ventricle condition, pulmonary atresia, and dilated cardiomyopathy. He relies on a CPAP machine for breathing support and is fed via a Ryle’s tube. Despite the complexity of his medical needs, his parents shared one simple wish: for their son to experience a day outdoors at Sunway Lagoon, where he could see birds up close rather than only hearing them from afar.

Responding to this heartfelt request, the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia partnered with Sunway Lagoon to organise a carefully planned outing that prioritised Zul Hafif’s safety and comfort. The experience allowed the family to step outside their daily medical routines and create cherished memories together.

At the park, Zul Hafif’s parents observed visible excitement as he watched birds flying freely in the open air. For them, the outing was more than a leisure trip—it was a rare moment of normalcy and happiness in a life shaped by constant medical care.

The initiative reflects the mission of the Children’s Wish Society of Malaysia to bring hope, strength, and joy to children living with life-threatening illnesses by fulfilling meaningful wishes. With the support of partners such as Sunway Lagoon, the organisation continues to demonstrate how compassion and collaboration can profoundly impact families facing extraordinary challenges.

For Zul Hafif, the day marked a small but powerful victory—a reminder that even amid medical complexity, moments of wonder and childhood joy can still soar.
