Let's help get Mario's son an electric wheelchair!
Donation protected
Mario Sr. is one of my YouTube followers and Patreons. He was telling me his story, and afterwards my wife and I felt compelled to help his son, Mario Jr. who suffers from Spina Bifida. Mario Jr. is wheelchair bound with only a manual wheelchair, and I'd love if we could all donate to not only buy him an electric wheelchair, but I'd also love to get them both up here to visit! We have the only handicap accessible water fall in our area, and I want to take them both and give them an awesome experience doing some fishing, camping, hanging out by the bonfire.
Please, if you feel led to be generous and help a family out, let's help him be more mobile and experience one of life's greatest joys.
Here is Mario Sr.'s story:
My name is Mario M. Morton his mom is Torie Sisung we have been together going on 27 years but arent married by law. My sons name is Mario M. Morton Jr. He was born Feb. 23, 1998 hes 23, born in Lubbock, Texas. He was born with Spina Bifida and Hyderocephelaus(had fluid on brain but has a shunt in head to drain the fluid) due to medication from his mom having epilepsy. Hes had surgery right after birth to close the hole in his lower back. He is paralyzed from his waist down. We moved back to New Orleans when he was 5months old we only lived in Lubbock temporarily. In 1999 we had a daughter who passed away at 5mth old from SIDS and trip was she was perfectly healthy no problems at birth.
He's a great person(almost said kid) but real naive and trusting because outside of school h'es always had a a parent by his side so he doesn't know too much of real life situations. Total he's been thru 6 surgeries, broke same leg 2 times which has caused him to be in bodycast 2x's. Hes smaller than a normal 23yr old just over 4ft. Was and is a great son just put at unfair advantage in life. He lives with me and his mom along with my daughter(Destiny)who is 27 with 3 kids(Jaela, Nevaeh, Juliet)who we basically support. My daughter's real dad was killed by drunk driver when she was 4 days old. I got with her mom when she turned 2 and she's called me dad her whole life. I worked last 10 yrs detailing vehicles until covid, and been outta work since. My "wife" doesnt work due to epilepsy and is fighting courts to get her disability back.
