Josh's iBot

Hi Everyone, As most of you know Josh was diagnosed with Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) at the age of 10. FA is a progressive rare form of Muscular Dystrophy that has robbed him of his ability to walk. Josh has always been a very active person but being in a wheelchair has greatly limited his ability to go places and do things he loves to do. We recently had the opportunity to try the iBot, which is a type of Segway wheelchair. This wheelchair is amazing to say the least and would allow him to go places like the beach, nature trails, and up stairs! All without having to get into a different medical device and without assistance. Unfortunately, insurance does not cover the cost of this wheelchair and it is not cheap. We have launched this campaign to help Josh purchase the iBot. We feel this will greatly improve his quality of life and allow him greater independence. We are asking for donations in whatever amount you can afford. We are so appreciative of the support and love!
