Nicole Lafontaine hasn't added a story.
Hi, my name is Nicole and I am here to ask you today to please help me make Ron's (my brother) world be brighter. Ron was born sligthly mentally challenged. He is 76 years old and he and my 94 year old mother live with me in my care. Ron has suffered accidents that has first taken his big toe on his left foot and had to undergo surgeries from a badly broken ankle from working as a lumber jack in the very early years. Regardless of his challenges Ron has always worked so hard to help our family as much as he could. His passions are hockey and fishing. Now with the limitations handed to him due to two hip replacements Ron has a difficult time getting around and coping. He would do anything for anyone. He is loving, funny, and a very caring man. We live in a three bedroom house but his room is downstairs and for months now I have watched him go up and down with such difficulties that I am afraid for his safety. Since his first hip replacement we have spent a large amount of money to try making the house more accessible for him. But now, today , I am asking for your help, as a means to give my brother a stairlift to make his world a better place as I can no longer do it alone. I thought I would give this act of kindness a chance. I know this is not a great time of year with Christmas so close but what better way then to give for someone in need. I would like to thank you all in advance for your act of love and kindness. I will appreciate any donation you can make, and I know my brother will be the happiest I will have seen him in a very long time. From my house to yours. we would like to wish you a Very Merry Christmas!
Again, Thank you!♥
