I want to help the Skinner family get a new house. James Skinner was involved in a motorcycle wreck on 6/2/06. He broke his back in three places and also is paralyzed. he has been at Shepard\'s rehab since 6/7/06 trying to get adapt to his injuries. he also has two little girls that his wife will be staying home with him and taking care of Emily who is 22 months old and Katelynn who is five weeks old. James is unable to go into the bathrooms all together the facing of the walls are to small for his wheelchair. he barley can come through any of the house because of the wall facings. i just want to make his home more comfortable and livable for the Skinner family.
Seeing this kind of movement is overwhelming after so many quiet weeks of feeling stuck. It is exhausting to keep pushing when the obstacles remain, but knowing there are people out there who care about the Skinner family helps me keep going.

Ridiculous that they have to deal with this while he is trying to heal. Let's help them out.
