Donate to Build Will's Healing Plunge Pool

Hello!
This is Will. He is my nephew. We call him, "God's Will" because he has truly been that each day of his life. He was born July 5th 2001 with a rare chromosomal abnormality called Mosaic Trisomy 8*. Upon his diagnosis, the medical team noted that there were only 10 documented cases worldwide and they did not expect him to live past one year. We are so happy Will is still on this side of Heaven with us!
Life is a tad bit more challenging for Will and his family than the "normal" challenges most families face raising kids.
Will has always had a deep love for the water! Before experiencing more significant urological issues, he frequently enjoyed visiting friends’ pools and even had the opportunity to participate in a surfing event with the organization “Life Rolls On.” However, since having a super-pubic catheter installed, he’s no longer able to enjoy the freedom and weightlessness of swimming in others’ pools or the ocean.
That’s why we are launching this fundraiser—to build a private plunge pool for Will. This pool will allow him to exercise regularly and experience the joy he once had of being buoyant in the water. Your support will help Will get back to doing what he loves most!
Would you consider making a donation to help fund a plunge pool for Will? The joy and sense of freedom it will bring him are truly priceless, and your contribution will help make this dream a reality for him.
Every little bit helps!
Thank you so much in advance!
Love,
Will's "Aunt Al"
