A TV and DVD's for wheelchair bound Mike

Posted Jan 3, 2018
Mike has his own room and wishes to have his own TV. Mike currently watches TV on the living room TV with the other children in the home, but again they are significantly cognitively impaired and Mike is forced to watch shows that are beneath his cognitive level. Having his own TV would allow Mike to spend time In his room watching shows/movies he enjoys and that are appropriate for his age and cognitive level. It would also allow for Mike to have some quality alone time that he often wants since it is challenging for him to interact with the other peers in his house. Mike is a sweet and caring young boy who deserves to be living with a family, so this one simple wish would mean the world to him since his wish to be with a family is not coming true at this time.

Mike is 17 years old and lives in PA

Mike is a sweet and darling child who has Cerebral Palsy. Mike lives in a group home tailored for male children with severe cognitive issues. Mike is the highest functioning child in the house. If not for his wheelchair, you would not realize that Mike has CP. Mike was placed in this group home because has witnessed domestic violence between his parents and also suffered physical abuse. Mike is adjusting to his group home and although he misses having a family, he still manages to be an outgoing and energetic young boy, full of hope for better days..
