While I have been to WDW many times I am not one who goes even once a year. I look forward to my occasional trips because it has always been an easy place to take my kids and have fun. I can leave my worries at home relax while you all cook, clean, and drive me from here to there. You also have made some memorable moments for me and my family. I could name many from each and every trip. I can honestly say I have never encountered a rude or mean CM.
This last trip started off very bad for my son and I, not because of any CM, but because my son has issues with any change in his regular routine and cam not handle being around what he calls "to many people". After being on a train for two days he was just not having any part of being reasonable, even when well rested and on his medication. After two days of being in parks and having to leave after two or three attractions I was about in tears and thinking WDW will never be the magical fun place it use to be for him or me. I was very sad and standing in Epcot thinking WDW was over for my family.
I went to Guest Services and talked to a wonderful young lady who gave me a special pass. I was able to enjoy my trip again. My son just can not get up early and be to a park early. He can not handle the crowds in lines or even walk ways for very long. With the help of this pass and a stroller I could actually stay and experience the magic with him.
To look at him you would think he was fine and could stand in a line. I never once got even a dirty look from a CM when he would hop out of the stroller and walk on to the attraction. For this I thank each and everyone of you I encountered this trip. I felt like I was being a big cheater using the pass and would have left and stayed at the hotel if I had even suspected that a CM thought this as well. Now some of you may have thought this but you never showed it and this allowed my son to have a great trip and for me to have some great memories.
Because of the pass my son was able to ride Buzz, his favorite this time, over and over. After an afternoon nap he even joined in with the dance party for a few minutes before climbing back in to the safety of his stroller. He was embarrassed to be a seven year old in a stroller but needed it and all of you made him feel comfortable.
A special thank you to the CM who helped me find him at All Star Movie. He was upset with me and when I was trying to grab drinks, out of the cooler, walked off and hid. I did not get the name of the CM because I was frazzled and just glad to find him. She was great though and very quick to respond to the front desk call of a lost child.
