Help Bobby Stand Again
If you know Bobby, you know he is one of the most selfless, kindhearted people you’ll ever meet. Unfortunately, a traffic car accident robbed him of the ability to stand on his own ever again ... UNTIL NOW! Here’s where you come in!
Bobby recently posted about an apparatus designed to allow paraplegics to stand. His post read: “Reason number 1,267.5482 of why you don’t wanna be paralyzed. This apparatus would be phenomenal for standing up to relieve pressure on the booty. It keeps your bones from weakening. Standing aids in digestion and blood circulation. Basically, it makes you healthier...all great news... the bad news...it’s over $7k.”
There are many documented health benefits of standing including:
• Improve/maintain bone integrity/skeletal development
• Lessen/manage the progression of scoliosis
• Strengthen cardiovascular system and build endurance
• Improve Circulation
• Reduce Swelling
• Improve bowel function and regularity
• Aid in kidney and bladder functions
• Improve/maintain range of motion
• Management of atrophy in the trunk and lower extremities
• Manage pressure (ulcers) through changing positions
• Improve strength to trunk and lower extremities
• Decrease joint/muscle contractures
Although he’d never ask us to do this for him, we want to help Bobby get this or even better equipment! Unfortunately, the cost ranges from $7,000-$20,000. The more we raise, the better quality apparatus we can get him. Every dollar counts!!!!
Thank you in advanced for helping us bless someone that brings joy to us all! He deserves it!
