Adopt-A-Child ~ Darrin
Darrin, who has Deuchenne Muscular Dystrophy, is 13 years old and has been unable to walk now for 2 years. His parents are in the process of providing him a handicapped bathroom and although they have gotten some money through the Medicaid Waiver, they have had to do much of the work themselves. Their church group came in and tore out all the old walls and put up the main wall. Darrin’s dad ran all the electrical and added a wall on the window side of the room so that the plumbers could fit the plumbing in the wall.
Under the Medicaid Waiver, they were able to get the plumbing in, the shower done, a door to the bathroom, and tile put in the shower. They also have an ADA toilet and pedestal sink.
Now they cannot afford to finish the bathroom for Darrin and are asking for help! Darrin’s condition will continue to deteriorate and children with Deuchenne MD usually need total care by the age of 20. This bathroom is very important in insuring that he will be able to, for now, have some independence, and as he grows and weakens, have a place where his caregivers can assist him. ($1100 will cover the materials needed to finish the bathroom)
Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support BB4K's fundraising efforts.
Thank you for visiting Darrin's fundraising page!
