wheels for James update

Last month I posted a local community fundraiser event for some very special...close friends.



Actually...James' mommy & daddy were the first non-family people we shared Trevor's IS diagnosis with last winter. They came to our home immediately that night...with Dunkin' Donuts comfort coffee in hand! A friendship that started before that sad frosty night...deepened after.



Which is why I'm SO excited to share about the amazing gift they recieved last week. After watching James' story on the evening news another family in the community donated a Special Needs van to James!



James' dinner will still be held...and the monies will be needed to fix the new wheels up for James' specific needs!



Trevy's fam is over the moon to see the community come alongside another family! And I'm here thinking we may just need to get James some new shades for his new ride?!


Congrats James & fam!

I truly believe all people WANT to help others, they just sometimes don't know how to. I am SO glad someone saw the news program and donated to the family. That is just awesome.

That's awesome! When will we get to see a pic of the new wheels? Glad to hear there are still generous people out there.
