Well today my Savaria Stairlift is being installed at home. Finally some results and that much closer to going home. It’s frustrating that NB Housing Program denied me on everything but happy that Muscular Dystrophy Canada came through to help. They are much better then our government that’s for sure. I’m very fortunate for their help.
While the Savaria Stairlift is being installed at home my brother and father are doing a few things to help. Ramp is getting done today, a pedestal sink is being put in so I can access the bathtub and the bathroom door is being widened. Things are starting to come together and hopefully I’ll be able to go home soon. It’s 329 days now for me that I’m in the hospital/rehab and I can’t wait to go home. Hopefully lots get done today.
Finally some good news!!! I would like to send out a very special thanks to Muscular Dystrophy Canada for helping towards the purchase of a stair lift. An application was done a long time ago up in Fredericton at Stan Cassidy but with this Covid situation has delayed everything in the world. I just got the email just a little while ago and Fraser called me too and let me know the news. He was already in touch with Harding and the stair lift is being installed right now as my brother and father are down there doing a few things for me…I needed this. One step closer to going home. 🙂
Our own government wouldn’t help me for which I paid into but I’m very thankful for the help from Muscular Dystrophy Canada. I know talking to him, funds were low as they haven’t been able to do any fundraising with this Covid pandemic really and they had to eliminate some of their assistance programs but the stair glide was one they could help with. I thank them so much!!!
Muscular Dystrophy Needs Your Donations
If anyone would like to donate to Muscular Dystrophy, please consider it. Your donations have a real impact on people’s lives as they go through disabilities. I know they are doing a virtual walkathon here soon. I’ll be posting it and will be supporting them for whatever I can do. I would like to help them help so they can help other people. Lots of people need help.
Thank you Muscular Dystrophy Canada, words cannot express the gratitude I have for the help you provided. To Fraser, thanks for escalating this to get this approved so quickly after talking to you just yesterday. Thank you!!!
I may be home for my birthday after all on Saturday. We’ll see. 🙂
