Help Debi Move without Pain
Donation protected
Hi, I'm Mark creating a gofundme account to help my dear friend, Debi, purchase a folding electric wheelchair. She is eligible for a knee replacement but will need dental procedures before that can happen. Her left knee is in such bad shape that she can only stand and walk (with a rolling walker) for limited distances and still experiences lots of pain standing/sitting/walking. Since we had to retire our 24 year old van with a lift that carried her mobility scooter we only have my Prius which will hold a walker but not a scooter. Debi looked around quite a bit and found the Air Hawk folding electric wheelchair online. It is much lighter than regular electric wheelchairs, 46 lbs. With the batteries removed and the chair folded it will fit in my car's rear storage area.
Debi does her best to get by on her monthly SS check and any commissions she earns from her Lemongrass Spa business. I help her as much as I can financially but also live off my SS along with two part time jobs as a musician. We're hoping those who've experienced her giving nature at Camarillo UMC (PEO, UMW, liturgist, funeral director, Noontime lunch programs, etc.) and elsewhere, and those who can afford to lend a hand might be willing to contribute to this fund to help her move about more comfortably and nimbly. Thank for your consideration; we'd be extremely grateful for your contributions, big or small.
Mark and Debi
