Buy a Cushion for Our Friend Kris!

Okay, get this; a wheelchair cushion is supposed to last two years, yeah? But my friend Kris has had to replace his SIX times in the last two years, because he keeps getting sent defective units.

This last time IT ARRIVED DEFECTIVE. Each time it must be replaced, he's made to wait more than a month in bureaucratic hell -- while he waits, he can only be upright in the defective cushion for a few hours, and gets to enjoy amazing stuff like the sensation of slowly falling over, and potentially more pressure sores.

When I heard about this final broken cushion, something broke in me. I was filled with a momma-bear energy too fierce to ignore.

Like... how much would it really cost to prevent this from happening ever again?

The answer is just 1.5k.

The "Ease Cushion(TM)" cycles air flow to change the shape and support of the cushion, for pressure relief, as Kris can't "shift in his seat" the way stand-up peeps can. It is also rated for preventative care; preventing and treating pressure sores. It comes highly rated (unlike many cheap cushions that the insurance prefers), encourages an active lifestyle, and has saved many asses.

When people ask me "Who's Kris?", I say "That guy in chat who always says hello when you come in, and is super welcoming." To which people respond "Oh THAT guy! He's awesome!". Every time.

KristheKrippled (his Twitch username) has spent most of the last year volunteering his time to moderate live events for small artists across Twitch.

He's supported me, and so many other small artists; by bringing his "let's go!" energy, watching out for more vulnerable people in the space, and radiating a grounded kindness that's helped others settle in and feel comfortable around our little nook of the internet. I'd like the return the favor. <3
