When 4-year-old Lola Nathanson first heard she was going to Disney World, she didn't believe it was true.

Lola loves dressing up in her Disney princess costumes and dreams of meeting Ariel from the Little Mermaid and Anna from Frozen.

And soon, thanks to the Make-a-Wish Foundation, Lola's dream of going to Disney will be a reality.

Lola, who was born with cystic fibrosis, and her parents and grandparents will head to Florida in February, for an all-expenses paid, week-long trip in the Give The Kids The World Village and The Disney Parks.

"She knows she has to take medicine, she knows she is sick, but she is still the happiest little kid ever," said Lola's mom, Daytona Duncan of Hanover.

While Daytona was pregnant, Lola was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, a lung and pancreas disease that Daytona had never heard of.

When Daytona and Lola's father, Zac Nathanson, both 23, found out about the diagnosis, it was a huge shock for them, especially as young parents.

"We cried for hours," Dayton said. "It was one of the worst things."

Despite the emotions that came with Lola's diagnosis, her birth was a happy moment for the family.

"When she came along, she was so beautiful," Daytona said. "Everybody was so happy she was here and that she had a chance at life."

Cystic fibrosis is a disease that causes a buildup of thick mucus in the lungs and pancreas, which makes it hard to breath, traps bacteria that leads to infections and prevents proper absorption of nutrients.

For Lola, this means trips every few months to Hershey to meet with her doctors, chest therapy twice a day that vibrates her chest to loosen the mucus, using a nebulizer twice a day and avoiding her family members when they are sick.

When she leaves the house, especially during flu season, Lola has to wear a mask to cover her mouth and nose.

And with every meal, she has to eat enzymes to help her absorb nutrients.

"Oh that’s why I gotta eat enzymes?" Lola asked. "I didn’t know. I thought I had to eat enzymes, so I can get bigger and bigger."

"It is why, so you grow big and strong," Daytona said.

For most of Lola's life, Dayton and Zac have lived with Zac's parents, Diana and Ben Nathanson.

"(The grandparents) both love her so much and would do anything for her," said Daytona adding that they babysit when she and Zac are working.

Every year, Lola's family organizes a golf tournament to raise money for cystic fibrosis and Lola's medical trust.

"We are trying to spread awareness," Daytona said. "Because that’s the only way people are going to know, and the only way we are going to find a cure."

Daytona's dad, Dan Duncan, organized the golf tournament and a trust three years ago. Half of the proceeds raised from the tournament get donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the other half goes to Lola's medical trust to help with medical expenses.

This year, the golf tournament is on April 20 at the South Hills Golf Club.

The family also spreads awareness about cystic fibrosis through the Facebook page Lola's Lovely Lungs.
