My son chose a home theater complete with movies, DVD player, gaming systems, comfy chair, popcorn machine, fridge, and free cable & High definition. It's been great since trips were almost impossible to plan around treatments. He also is able to have friends over for movie or gaming parties.
However, one of the young people with the same disease used his Make A Wish to start a charity foundation to give electronic toys and games away to pediatric inpatients at hospitals. He's been very successful:
The Mikey's Way Foundation

Teen establishes foundation to buy electronic games for pediatric cancer patients at Women & Children’s Hospital as his "Make-A-Wish"

My daughter 7 wished to goto Paris (we are in Australia) She wanted to visit the art gallery's and have her portrait painted by a street artist. And ofcourse there is Euro disney. They said it shouldnt be a problem then said no. So why tell a little girl she can have any wish in the world and then say no.
We are however visiting theme parks within australia this coming April. No nearly as exciting but im sure she will love it.
I did read about a young guy who wish to meet the cast of the TV show LOST, they flew his family to Hawaii for a week and he got to spend time watching them make the show.....I thought this sounded really cool. Its like 2 wishes in 1, a holiday and meeting famous people. If you have a look on the make a wish website, they have ideas and other peoples wishes.
Good luck thinking of a wish, ,make it special for you. You deserve it after having cancer

I would wish small kids and babies would never ever get struck with this illness. At least as adults we understand what we are going through and why we are aching - a small child has no idea as to why he/she is in so much pain - as regards to both the cancer and the medication and cannot even explain his/her plight to anyone. If that is one wish I would be granted - It would make my cancer aches and pains much more tolerable. Its heart wrenching when I go to the hospital and see the kids on drips, on radiation, on chemo and howling away. Its the worst punishment that is being metted out which no child desreves.

To hang for a day with either Harrison Ford or Steven Spielberg. I'm sorry to hear of your condition. I have AIDS, so I kinda know what you're going through. Either that, or to spend Christmas Eve night in the White House.
My best to you!

seriously. I'd probably ask the make a wish foundation to help me raise more money for cancer research by putting in touch with celebrities or putting me on TV.
I actually have a preconceived idea that I would use.

The Truth,
I personally would wish for World Love. For all people to get in touch with Christ. I'm sure if Make a Wish Foundation
could grant this, they would. As far as material or personal pleasure things, I would wish for a home, as mine was destroyed in hurricane Katrina in August 05. I am living in a Fema camper. But!!! as for you, only you can make that deision, only you know your heart and your desires. What I suggest is that you take your question to the only person that can give you the perfect answer, CHRIST, But remember to be patient and listen to what He has to say. Make sure it's Him you're listening to and not youself, then you WILL recieve the PERFECT wish!!!!
God Bless You,
Itchy

I know a child that wanted to go to a NASCAR race. He got to his race and met many of the drivers.
I know someone else that got to meet Lance Armstrong.

I would ask for the "Pay it Forward" wish.
That two people do a kind gesture that is very nice and extremely worthwhile and that the two people that they do these kind gestures toward would ask the person they did it to, to have them do two favors that are just as great. and the favors would snowball into a kinder, gentler world to live in.
