Wheelchair Van for Ian
Donation protected
We are raising funds for a much needed wheelchair van for Ian. Ian is a 12 year old boy who absolutely loves life and lights up any room with his smile. Up until the age of 8, Ian was a typically developing boy who loved to dance and play soccer. He lives at home with his mom and sister Sarah, and they started noticing that Ian was having difficulty with coordination and walking. Fast forward a few months, Ian was diagnosed with a rare, genetic condition called Adrenoleukodystrophy (ADL). ADL has resulted in Ian being blind, unable to eat so he gets nutrition from a stomach tube and is is unable to walk or use his arms or legs. But... Ian loves life attends school and church and enjoys buying stuffed animals at the store. At this point in time, Ian and his family cannot go anywhere outside of their apartment unless his mom reserves a wheelchair ride. The purchase of a used wheelchair van would change this family’s life tremendously.
