Stephen "The Hulkster" Buches

November is Epilepsy Awareness month. Epilepsy impacts 6 year old Stephen Buches and his family daily. We are raising money for medical equipment, the P POD chair which insurance does not cover. The P Pod chair would allow Stephen to interact with his family, specifically his siblings, much easier. It would also provide him with the postural support that cannot be recreated at home with pillows and blankets.
The P Pod was born as a result of feedback from parents that were clamoring for an alternative seating device for the home that would provide all the clinical benefits their child’s needs, while allowing them to actively participate with the family.
The P Pod does just that. Through its vibrant colors and bean bag like design, the P Pod offers a warm, fun and engaging look with a specially molded foam liner that provides outstanding positional support and comfort.
There are three components to the P Pod: The Positioning Pod, a molded foam liner that provides optimal postural support, the Bolster Support which assists with upright positioning and a bean bag base.
