When my brother was 12, he was in an accident and as a result suffered a traumatic brain injury and is now wheelchair bound.  My mother and father dedicated their lives to taking care of him from that moment on and have sacrificed everything to ensure his health and happiness. My father would work around the clock to bring in money to support the family while my mom basically became a home health care giver overnight. With the passing of my father unexpectedly at age 52 a few years ago, my mom was left to take care of an adult handicap child on her own with no income coming in. She does this daily with a smile on her face and a positive attitude for my brother Brian.  She is a proud, strong, and selfless woman who does not like to accept help from anyone but deserves it more than anyone I know.  My brother's current handicap accessible van is up for inspection and will not pass because of its wear and tear over the years.  In order to feel safe transporting Brian around and so she can just get to the grocery store and back, she is in need of a new one. Since devoting her life to taking care of Brian so he can live at home and have the best life she can give him under the circumstances, she is unable to work and therefore has no way of purchasing a new vehicle. I created this site in hopes that we can raise funds to help her with this significant financial purchase that is a necessity for her and Brian. I love them with all of my heart and if I could purchase one for them on my own, I would, but we need your help.  Any small donation would be extremely helpful :) Thank you for your time. Kelly
