Busy Monday 707

I haven’t shared much in this space about Wheels’, his illness and subsequent events.  But today I want to share A Pinch of Joy:  I recently sold the no longer needed mobility van.    Sister Bee called a few weeks ago and said  her daughter’s former classmate was looking for a mobility van– could she pass on our phone number.  The family took the van out for a  drive and said yes, this is what we need!  The wheelchair ramp and installation cost as much as the new van itself.  However, it was paid for by an agency, so I did not ask the buyers to pay for it either.   They were thrilled!

The mother was diagnosed with ALS at age 35 after giving birth to their second child, now 11 months old.  Their  story was shared in the local newspaper, picked up by People magazine (link in first comment) and then by a publication in the UK.  I hate the circumstances for both of us.  But I am so glad to have had the equipment for us — and  to pass it on to them.     It truly takes a village. . . . I am so glad that you are a part of the A Pinch of Joy Village!  Thank you for sharing your awesome posts each week!
