Michael Cervelli, my nephew, recently experienced a devastating, life-changing accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down. This sudden event has completely changed his daily life, presenting new challenges that require significant adjustments to his home and lifestyle. Michael is now facing the reality of living with paralysis, and he needs support to adapt to his new circumstances and regain as much independence as possible.

The funds raised have gone toward retrofitting Michael's home to make it fully wheelchair accessible. We still need to obtain a bed and lift to help with transfers. These changes are necessary to afford him his independence and freedom of movement. We are reaching out to our community for help—any support, whether through donations or simply sharing this fundraiser, would mean the world to Michael and our family. Your kindness and generosity can help Michael rebuild his life and find hope in the face of these challenges.
