Parker can't leave home - help build a ramp
Parker uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇺🇸 Fresno, California, United States1,692 views
Parker has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Parker can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the building-code slope requirement, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Parker's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you the best. Hope the doctors have good news. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
Take care, Brielle. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
You're not alone, Brielle. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Sakai.
Sending strength. I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
