Please help Kaleb McBurnie by supporting him with raising money for an electric wheelchair accessible van. Kaleb has Duchene Muscular Dystrophy.

Hi everyone my mane is Katie and i would like to share a story with you all,
Let me intrduce you all to a brave young man named Kaleb McBurnie,
At the age of 4 Kalebs mum found out that Kaleb was diagnosed with the treminal illness called Duchene Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
Living with DMD means losing little pieces every day, losing muscle cells, losing strength, losing function, losing the ability to walk and ultimately to breath, living with DMD also means trying to make the best out of every day. 
Kaleb and his family have to face many battles in life, as Kaleb gets older the DMD has started to progresses, which means that Kaleb will have to go to more specialist appointments, his family have to monitor his movements on a daily basics. Soon Kaleb will be in an electric wheelchair, we are trying to raise funds for an accessible van in order for Kaleb and his family to have a normal as possible life. Kalebs family needs this van to help with transportation to and from specialist appointments as well as every-day things such as school and shopping.
There is NO known cure for DMD
Kaleb is almost 11 years old, and at this stage he is having trouble walking, balancing and getting up from the ground. He will soon need a motorized wheelchair . In most cases teen years are when the most significant loss of skeletal muscle strength takes place. It is at this point that activities involved the arms, legs, or trunk of the body will require assistance most young men will retain the use of their fingers through his phase so they can generally still write and use a computer.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this and thank you all for you contributions.
