We started this petition because we are in desperate need of help. Seven months ago we combined households due to a tragic accident resulting in permenant quadraplegia. A family of 5 happy and full of life devastated when the father, Brad, almost lost his life on his way to work, being hospitalized for 6 months. Now that he is home 6 months after the accident we are facing life head on. We have 3 kids and are living with my mom and her husband. There is hardly any room for Brad to get around in his electric wheelchair, or to use ANY part of the house functionally. There is hardly any room for his equipment as well. It restricts his rehabilitation and being as close as we can be as a family. He went from a hard working independent father, supporting us by working on a rig for 5 years, to totally dependant on others. We are trying to give back to Brad and find a way for our family to strive. Please sign this petition to help show the hope that you also share for our Extreme Home Makeover and a life as fullfilling as he worked for it to be. Thank you. Sincerely, The Boon/Houchen Family.
I am putting together a detailed packet of our floor plan limitations and medical accessibility requirements to submit to the production team. My focus is ensuring they have the technical documentation needed to understand why current living conditions are unsustainable. I will provide an update once I have confirmation that this documentation has reached the project coordinators.

This family deserves a break after everything they went through. Brad sounds like such a hard worker and he should have a home he can actually move around in.

Worked on rigs for years myself. I know how much that takes out of a guy. He deserves a fair shot at a normal life with his kids.
