Another good day!!!
110 wheelchairs went out the door. We sent 40 fully assembled
and assembled another 70.
A 3-year-old who had never walked is walking now.

This
little boy got a
walker with wheels from the Felix foundation and was not just
walking, but running all over the place for the first time.

Mom
breathed a major sigh of relief as many of these parents
honestly do not know if the children will walk or not. He was
one happy guy, given his opportunity to have a more independent
life. Today about forty children received wheelchairs.

Another young man
arrived in a wheelchair his father made for him many years ago.
We are taking photos, as it was an ingenious invention back
then. The guy left in a new wheelchair, much more comfortable
and allowing him the movement to do what he loves, drawing
houses!

One young man had
cerebral palsy and he thanked me profusely in a halting way. I
decided that it was probably as much about the day out as the
wheelchair! With no bus access, a rural home and two very aging
parents, it is highly likely he had not been out of the house in
five years!
