Handicap Accessible Van to Help Caretaker

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Bobby Young. I am a 58-year-old male born with Cerebral Palsy and Lupus. I was living with my mom in Gainesville Florida up until she passed on February 8, 1999. My cousin Samuel Johnson came to bring me back to Broward County in September 2005, to live with him. He passed away two weeks after I moved back. After he passed on September 11, 2005, I had to move in with his sister Tammy and her husband Leo. Tammy and her husband Leo are 53 years old. They have been caring for me since 2005. Tammy also takes care of her 74-year-old mother which is my aunt. She has problems with her legs and is not in the best of health either. I have been trying to get help to get a van so that my cousin Tammy doesn't have to pick me up to get me into the van because her health is not good. She is a diabetic with back problems. Her husband Leo also has lower back problems. They make sure that I get to church, my doctor's appointments and other entertainment that I like to do. She also takes me on traveling trips out of town with her. Since my Cerebral Palsy has gotten worse, her work hours have been cut from 42 hrs. per week to about 12 to 15 hrs. per week. This is due to making sure that me and her mother is well taken care of. So, I am reaching out for help to get a van that will accommodate them. We are both in wheelchairs. Please help if you can. May God bless and keep you in advance.
