June 29, 2009

Hello, we are a family of 4 & our youngest son, who will be 6 in July was born with Bi-Lateral Microtia. This means he was born without ears. With the help of his hearing aid,he is able to hear & speak just fine. With out the aid he is completely deaf.  Since he was born, my wife has dedicated her life to finding the best specialists, doctors, teachers & insurance to provide the best care for our baby. You see at the age of 6, we can proceed with the reconstructive surgery of his outer ears which is scheduled to start July 8 in California.

I WISH for a slide for Samantha

June 25, 2009

I have an adorable active 2 year old little girl named Samantha. We have a patch of grass out back behind our apartment that she loves to go play on. She loves being outdoors! It would be such a blessing if she had a small slide or play structure to play on.

I am the principal of Thomas Paine International Elementary School. I am writing on behalf of a child and family in my school. About six weeks ago, Grace, a second grader, was diagnosed with cancer. She is responding well to treatment, and we eagerly await the day when she can return to school healthy and strong. She has at least two years of chemotherapy ahead of her.

I WISH I wasn't trapped in my house

June 04, 2009

My name is David. I am a quadriplegic who is trapped in his own home. I need a ramp. In the last two years I've only left my home twice. Both times by ambulance.

I have a wheelchair lift which cannot be fixed.

The ramp is expensive because it zig zags in my small yard.
The zoning board approved it. The material cost about $2,500.00 and the costs for two carpenters is $2,000.00
