Need your help helping a special needs child...

A close friend/coworker of my wife has a special needs child and they need your help. They are in a contest to try to win a mobility van to help take care of him.

Here's his story in her words...

Quote:
Benjamin had a stroke before he was born at 32 weeks, he spent the first 71 days in the hospital and we were told that he would not be able to talk or function. Ben has CP, is legally blind, and has a seziure disorder. Ben needs assistants to do the most simple task, but always has a smile on his face. At 12 years old he communicates well and touches so many peoples life. He loves music and throwing balls. We have to lift him out of his wheelchair and put him in a special car seat for support and then breakdown his wheelchair and put it in the car. He is getting to the age where a wheelchair van is needed. One of his Para’s as school summed up Ben so well, “This sweet little boy isn’t just a student that attends the school I work for. He shows me everyday what life is really about. He is full of happiness, peace and love. I melt every time I see that beautiful smile of his. When I see him smile, I know it’s been a successful day. He is a true angel.” Brooke Erwin, Ben Brawley’s Friend.

Ben has taught me to live in the moment and appreciate small things that happen. His courage, happiness and joy makes me proud and makes Benjamin my local hero! Please help make it easier for us to transport him.
Pam Brawley, Ben’s Proud Mom
My wife, her friends and coworkers have been voting as much as possible and they are doing pretty good so far but could use as much help as possible.
