Wheels for Wheels: Ewan's New Car
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Ewan, I am 8 years old and to my family and friends, known as "Ewie". My favourite things are Poke'mon and Ninjago. To people that know me I am a regular, fun loving and chatty kid. But i do have a condition called Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and have had it all my life.
Up until recently I have been able to manage getting around on my own, but now it's getting a little bit harder for me. I have a new electric power wheelchair to get around. But unfortunately the car we have is not equipped to carry it around so it has to stay at school while Mum has to push me around in a manual chair at home (sometimes she pushes me where i don't want to go!!!)
I've been able to manage for a while, but because of my condition, have been falling more often, and need my chair all the time. Mum and Dad are trying to find me a wheelchair-accessable car so I can use my power chair and be more independant. These new cars and the conversions needed cost alot more money than expected, unfortunately they are very expensive, and my parents don't have the money right now to buy one.
So at this stage I greatly appreciate any and all donations that will help me live life to the fullest.
As I always say to my mum "My legs are now at 0% power" and I want to run around like any 8 year old. My wheels are new legs, and they are ALWAYS at 100% power! So it would be great if I could take them everywhere.
