  • 'George to the Rescue' teams up with Make-A-Wish New Jersey to grant 7-year-old James Popelka’s wish just in time for his birthday.
    James and his older sister Rose have both been diagnosed with congenital muscular dystrophy. After James made a wish for an accessible home theater/gaming room that would allow him to play games with his friends and enjoy movie nights with his family, GTTR host George Oliphant brings in a dedicated team of experts and designers to renovate the Popelka's living space and create an immersive cinematic experience that’ll provide them comfort, joy, and entertainment for many years to come. #worldwishday #makeawish

    Great episode! The Popelka family are part of my extended family. I am so happy for all of them that James got his wish granted. Thank you George to the Rescue and everyone involved in this.

    WOW. What a fantastic room for Jimmy and family. I love how a sun room was turned into a place full of movies and arts and crafts. The ceiling was awesome. George and team really made a wish come true for an adorable boy. Happy trails to you and God bless.

    With muscular dystrophy, there’s a lot of things other kids can do, that you cannot. Make A Wish gives you something you can do and that means so much. Thanks Make A Wish!

    Gosh what a wonderful family. So happy that that they were selected for Make a wish, I’m sure there are hundreds of thousands that apply. Wow…what a room transformation that easily converts from movie (dark) to art time (light). And that ceiling! Wow what an artist. It’s true, it takes a village to raise a child….and George’s v😅illage is all encompassing for sure!

    Love that there's voice control - if James and Rose end up not being able to use their hands well, as would be likely given diagnosis, having voice activated stuff will be so important.

  • @BLAB-it5un

    The challenge about something like this is it reinforces that passive, non-physical entertainment requiring little or no effort is completely positive. It is not. Yes, for two children with physical challenges a focus on sitting staring at a huge screen has merit but as a culture celebrating and focusing on entertainment over producing and working and contributing is not a balanced message. So much about life is being lost to the obsession with screens. And, yes, the irony of being on a screen to point this out is not lost on me. But rather than simply gush at the wonderful aspects of this story, which are real and valid, I find it necessary to point out that there are downsides to things like this that are ignored. And I realize it is possible the balancing act is going on behind the scenes and the emphasis, appropriately, is on the wish, the joy, the immediacy. But if not I hope someday there will be a focus on a balance that honors work, contribution, producing, effort, struggle and the power of giving rather than only receiving.
