Wheelchair Van for Marcus
Donation protected
Hi, My name is Beth and I am raising funds for my son Marcus for a Wheelchair Van. As some of you may know, Marcus is 23 and suffers from a very rare genetic enzyme disease called Hunter Syndrome (MPSII). Marcus is non weight bearing, using a wheelchair, and I have been lifting him into our van for appointments. Because of the age and mileage of my van it is unable to be adapted to a wheelchair van. Due to his size, 4' 10" and 120lbs, I am unable to continue lifting him without serious injuries to myself. This was proven during his latest hospitalization when I was by myself during his discharge. I have applied to his waiver program and various agencies that help with these things with no success. My only option is to purchase one on our own. With his doctors and hospital being 2 1/2 hours away I am looking at less than 5 years old and under 50,000 miles as it needs to be reliable. This is not something I ask lightly as I am always one to help others when possible. Please if you can find it in your hearts to help it would be greatly appreciated as this not something we can do on our own.
