Miracle Merrick's Quality of Life

Merrick was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, SMA, type 1, at 8 weeks old.  Essentially, it is the childhood form of ALS.  It is a disease that robs people of physical strength by affecting the motor nerve cells in the spinal cord, taking away the ability to walk, eat or breathe.  It is the number one genetic cause of death for infants.
In order to ensure our precious little miracle man, Merrick's quality of life, adaptive equipment is necessary.  Ranging from special wheel chairs to communication technology to a conversion van, there will be many expenses along the way.
Any funds will go toward making Merrick's life easier and more fulfilling, but please don't forget to continue to pray for us, too!
