Wheelchair accessible vehicle needed
Donation protected
Hello all, my name is Gisella and I am fundraising to hopefully purchase a much needed wheelchair accessible vehicle.
My son Anthony aka Pnut was born at 27 weeks and suffered a Grade IV brain hemorrhage two weeks after birth. He has been in a wheelchair since he was two years old. During his life he’s had multiple surgeries which have included shunt placement and several revisions. He has also had a bachlofen pump placed in him, has had surgery on his back, and recently his belly. My Pnut is now 21 years old, 6ft tall and weighs about 170. He’s a quad so he’s wheelchair bound. Recently I’ve had to withdraw him from school because I could no longer transfer him from wheelchair into the car and from car into wheelchair. I haven’t been able to take him anywhere because of this. I have looked into wheelchair accessible vehicles and they are pretty pricey. I need help. I am asking if you and/or anyone you know could help us by donating. Pnut is a great young man who does like car rides but lately he hasn’t shown an interest, I believe he knows that it’s hard for me to get him out the house. And this makes me feel bad. I love my son and will do anything for him.
