GEORGE ’ S GHOSTBUSTER WISH
George was born with only half of a working heart . His wish to be a Ghostbuster , take a ride in an Ecto-1 car , and go ghost hunting was an imaginative escape into a world where the heroes are different and brave – just as he has had to be during three life-saving operations . It was also a positive reminder of all the things he CAN do , even when he can ’ t run around like his friends .
When Make-A-Wish shared George ’ s wish story in April 2022 to highlight some of the wishes waiting to be granted , Ghostbusters fans and communities from all over the UK rallied round offering to help grant George ’ s wish .
For example , Peter Cooper from Manchester , who runs Film Car Hire , offered to drive George in his replica Ecto-1 car , which was used in Sony ’ s promotion of the most recent Ghostbusters film .
