102607	Nancy Kelly (Supports Coordinator)	Pittsdburgh, PA	412 920-2171 nkelly@hvhs.org	Fence and Locakable Hot Tub Lid	In need of a tall, sturdy fence to fence in their backyard and a lockable secure lid for his hot tub for Alex, 12-year-old young man diagnosed with Severe Mental Retardation, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, ADHD, Hypoglycemia, Seizure Disorder and Endocrine Disorder. He's impulsive and has no safety awareness. he and his family receive support from a Behavior Specialist Consultant through Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services with Pressley Ridge Autism and Developmental Disabilities Program. Alex demonstrates severely challenging behaviors which impact the development in the social, communication, sensory and safety areas. Alex has a tendency to become aggressive with his siblings which is a constant struggle within the family structure. Alex has a tendency to run off, and often places himself in harms way. He will attempt to run out of the house. He will demonstrate daily temper tantrums which include dropping all of his weight to the floor, kicking, hitting, screaming, and head banging. Alex will get out of his home/yard and will run into the street, into neighbor's homes, a pond, or a neighbor's swimming pool. Alex is unable to swim. Alex requires the assistance of 4-5 adults to get him back home in a safe area when he does get out. Alex has 4 other siblings ages 2, 4, 6, and 14. If one of Alex's parents are home alone with the kids and Alex gets out they have to make a choice between chasing after Alex and risking the other children's safety or staying with the other kids and letting people in the community bring Alex home. Alex demonstrates sensory processing deficits and uses water play and his hot tub to organize his central nervous system and also uses this as a coping strategy to calm down. Currently his hot tub is not in use as the lid was broken so his parents/caregivers are unable to use it due to the safety hazard it poses if filled without a lockable lid. Individual Supports Coordinator and Alex's parents have had discussions Allegheny County Department of Human Services about funding the supply and installation of a fence however the County has told both that they will not approve a request for a fence, as it does not meet any service definitions under the Person Family Directed Waiver in which Alex is enrolled. I have looked into obtaining funding from Achieva Family Trust for this need also so however this request has not been responded to from that organization. Alex's parents have done as much as they can to secure their home to ensure their son's safety such as replacing the windows with windows Alex cannot operate, installed keyless pads on the inside and outside of the garage door and front door, and a key lock for their sliding glass door. They have alarms on all the doors as Alex will get up in the night and try to get out of the home.

061107	Lisa P	Milwaukee, WI	lisamp12@hotmail.com  414-313-4994	Laptop	Hello:) I am hoping to find a generous laptop computer donation for my 5 year old daughter, Maria. She has a rare syndrome called Larsen's Syndrome. This syndrome causes bone/ joint laxities, dislocations, weakness and instability. Maria has had 10 surgeries in her short little life- 8 of which were life-threatening cervical spine fusions with three separate halos. Maria has fine motor delays (weakness in grasp, pinchers, writing) in her wrists, hands and fingers. Her Pediatrician feels a laptop would work best for her in school and at home, since writing will always be hard for her. Maria is very smart for her age and has tested at the 11 year old level in some areas. We want to offer her every opportunity to succeed, grow and be independent. I have searched and searched for a program or charity that could help us with this need, but have not yet been successful. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration:)

061806	Janet Franklin	Campbellsville, KY	270-469-4958 janete55@peoplepc.com	Wheelchair ramp for van and home.	I have been disabled since '93 and these last couple of years, my legs have gotten worse and now I have to have surgery on my knees. It is all I can do to walk. Medicare did help me get an electric wheelchair but when my husband died in October, it left me with just my disability and part of his social security.  I'm in real need for a wheelchair ramp but I can't afford to have one built. I moved to Kentucky from Indiana to be near my sister and have help when I need it, but sometimes I would just love to be able to get outside and go around the town or just go to the store or whatever, but I can't cause I have no way of getting my chair outside. It's a big electric wheelchair. If someone could help or knows where I can get some help I would really appreciate it. I also have a van which I can't drive right now. The doctor's won't let me because of my legs. But my sister can drive it and I would like to be able to get the chair in the van as well in case we go some place where I would have to do a lot of walking. Thank you and God bless.

052005	April Ellis	Daytona Beach, FL.	386-226-3246 racer063@yahoo.com	High rise toilet seat and lift chair	This is very hard for me to ask.  I started taking care of my mother who is only 59 this Aug.  She is dieing of Cerebellum Atrophy.  She had been in the care of my youngest sister who badly neglected her.  She spent 7 months without doctor appointments, meds and could not see do to her glasses being broke.  My sister threw out some of her things she needs on a daily basis.  My mother also had surgery on her hip, twice.  I am in the need of  a high-rise toilet seat with the arms, and she is bad need of a lift chair.  Medicare only pays for the mechanism and nothing else.  With my mother being on a small SSI check, she is not able to pay for the remaining 500.00.  I can't afford this as I have two daughters myself and one has epilepsy.  My husband and I have our own bills to pay as well.  I do what I can for mom, but this is more than even I can afford.  This is the two things I can not seem to afford.  My mother has been to the doctor, new glasses and all meds and she gets fed three meals a day, plus snacks.  She came from one meal a day and very sick looking to getting better.  If anyone can help I would appreciate this very much.
050905	Julia Hamilton	Stuarts Draft, VA	patsy@adelphia.net 1-540-337-3970	Adjustable Bed	I am in very bad need of an adjustable bed. My husband is also. We want to sleep in the same bed, and Medicare will not supply a double bed. I am just unable to explain how I feel. I was once a social worker and now in need and can find no one to help me. Because of a doctor's mistake, I lost 2/3 of my right lung, and 1/3 of my left lung. My husband inherited a disease and his body makes too much cholesterol, so his arteries are damaged beyond repair. He gets what he can from Veterans hospital and just does without the rest, he cannot afford in medication. My medical needs out of pocket are $28,000 a year out of pocket, plus Medicare. We do not qualify for any assistance even though our federal adjusted income is $7,700 for two people. They will only look at our gross income and say we earn too much. We have charged over $27,000 for medication and will until our credit is bad. We have perfect credit, but with so much medication for me to survive, I feel guilty for the stress it must put on my husband. We were told about a year ago that we need to sleep in an adjustable bed, and never on a flat bed. We are still sleeping on a flat bed, for we do not have the money for an adjustable double bed. We need a walk in shower, and the floor in our bathroom is sinking in one place, we pray it doesn't cave in. I was saved by a miracle, after six months in medical intensive care at the University of Virginia. My doctors and family decided, no more surgery for the last tear in my lungs split down the middle. As I lay there God sewed my lungs up. I was told two months ago to stay in a wheelchair. I cannot do that for we need to have food cooked and try cleaning, as best as we can. Always in God's hands and praying for rescue. Waiting for God's child to help me financially.
