    Nate you handle these situations perfectly - anyone else notice Nate asked "Are you Aiden" as if kids in wheelchairs with no feet are a dime a dozen - little things normalize situations.

    When I was a young teen, my mother's health started to deteriorate. When I was a young adult, she struggled to walk a hundred feet. She was gifted a mobility scooter through a health program and they also paid for a lift on my vehicle. She had real freedom again for the first time in a while. I know what it meant to her and I wish blessings on this young man, and Secret Santa. Go, go, go!

    Thank you for his electric wheelchair. I will never understand what this sorry no good healthcare system is doing not providing this young man with an electric wheelchair already. It’s all about the dollar not about the patient that all she or he needs is just to get well and be able to function in society as we all do. God bless this young man and his family.

    I hope Aiden has a great time being a bit of a Secret Santa himself with those gift cards! My husband uses a mobility scooter, and at first he was REALLY self conscious, he was born with cerebral palsy, so he’s been using crutches his whole life so he was just hesitant, that is until we went to a flea market, I thought maybe going where he didn’t know anyone, he could try it out, if he didn’t like it, fine, we could sell it. HE LOVED IT!
    No one even payed it any attention. We just upgraded from that used one to a four wheeler, it’s much more stable than the three wheel one he had, it tipped over pretty easy.
    I hope Mr. Eaton can do a follow up after the holidays so you can show off your new wheels!

    I think this was awesome. I also feel maybe Secret Santa or your feel good Friday should do something for that Awesome brother. That mom and dad should be so proud of those boys.
