Welcome and thank you for taking the time to visit Braden’s page! As of November 2022 Braden is a 15 year old boy. Braden loves the thrill and adventure or monster trucks, dirt bikes, go carts, and roller coasters. While Braden may enjoy the thrill and adrenaline of these things he is not fully capable of enjoying these anymore. Currently he is in a wheelchair 90% of the time. He has an osteochondroma causing severe pain, we have surgery planned this summer. He also has arthritis due to his toe walking. Braden has autism , speech delay, cognitive delay, Disruptive mood disregulation disorder, and seizure spectrum disorder. Since October 2022 he has been admitted to Devos Children’s Hospital three times due to mental instability from his DMDD. We have been working very hard to get him to a better place so someday down the road we have our happy, loving, smiley boy whom loves Disney movies and watching video games. We are currently raising money to be able to get Braden a wheelchair ramp to enter and exit our home safely. Currently we have two boards similar to two 2x4s and it is a steep incline , which has been causing damage to his wheelchair.
More to come another day…
