Zak is a 6-year old, 65-lb boy who suffered a traumatic brain injury at the tender age of 8 weeks old. He is completely dependent which requires 24-hour care. Zak lives with his parents and 2-year old sister. His father being the financial provider, and mother who is a full-time student pursuing a nursing degree and stay at home mom which allows her to be available to care for his sister, and take Zak to his routine visits.
His increased weight makes it harder for him to participate in leisurely activities he had previously come accustomed to such as riding the swings, or simpler things like going grocery shopping and running errands. A wheelchair accessible vehicle is a medical necessity for Zak and would provide him with an improved quality of life by allowing Zak to safely be transported to doctor’s appointments and participate in social activities. It would also provide safe transfers into the vehicle decreasing the risk of fall or injury to Zak or his caregivers. The handicap accessible van would also provide Zak with a safe mode of transportation for Zak as he continues to grow.
