Ridin' with G-pa

For those of you who may not know, my dad has Multiple Scelrosis (MS). He was diagnosed in 1989 and the disease has gradually been limiting his mobility. About a month ago, dad had to start using his electric cart regularly. Well dad had mobility around the house, but it was difficult to leave the house. He had no way to get the cart out of the house. That's where the Knights of Columbus stepped in. A group of men built a ramp for my dad in the garage so that he can leave the house in his cart!





My family cannot begin to thank these men enough for what they have done. Chris, Olivia, and I stopped by to check out the new ramp and boy is it awesome! Here are some pictures of G-pa taking Olivia for a ride on his cart.




Strapped to G-pa's lap and headed down the ramp.





Olivia wants to help G-pa steer the cart and beep the horn.




Heading down the sidewalk and checking out the sights.



Coming back home!
