The dreams of loved ones are worth fulfilling, even if it requires a lot of effort. Philadelphia teacher Dustin Vital sold a thousand cheesesteaks in six weeks to take her mother dying of cancer to Egypt — a woman dreamed of seeing the mysterious pyramids since childhood.
A year ago, Gloria Walker, a Philadelphia resident of the United States, learned that she had the last stage of bladder cancer. Since childhood, she dreamed of visiting Egypt, and when her son Dustin Vital asked what desire she would like to have time to fulfill before the end of her life, Gloria answered without a doubt: «To see the Egyptian pyramids.»
