Hi everyone, my name is Amanda and I’m trying to raise money for my wonderful boyfriend, Brian Medeiros. As people who know Brian know, Brian was diagnosed with a rare hereditary disease called Machado-Joseph disease. It’s incurable. It’s a type of ataxia that affects the spine and the muscles. Brian is in a wheelchair and cannot walk on his own. Everyone who ever met Brian loves him instantly. He is funny, witty, big-hearted, and very loving. He would give the shirt off his back to help someone, so please help him.

We are trying to raise money to get him a new walker/wheelchair which is not covered by any type of Insurance and it will really help him be more independent with walking. The only thing is, it’s a lot of money. Any bit will help, thank you.
