GRANTED!

Wish Granted by: WishUponAHeroFoundation mum2kaza Mar 4, 2009

I WISH My daughter could have a voice again

My daughter (who is 24 & developmentally delayed) has a trach and is having trouble talking due to scar tissue on her vocal cords. She will be having surgery to re-construct her airway & hopefully fix this problem, but it will leave her with no voice for 3 months during the healing process. There is a device through Digital Voice Technoogies called an MV-1000 which sells for $398.00 (including the software) that would give her a way to communicate. Insurance will not cover it because it is a temporary condition. I am a single mom and do not have the income to do this for her. If someone could purchase this for us, or maybe has or knows of someone who has a communication device we could borrow that would be great.

    I want to thank everyone for your encouragement, cards and prayers. I especially want to thank Joshua Richards from Walk on Heroes, George Allott from Digital Voice Tech and WA Therese for your help and generosity. You have no idea how much it means to know that my daughter will be able to communicate without frustration. May God’s love continue to shine through you, to a world in need.

    Thank you again. God Bless you all.

    I will place the offer to grant once I have the Palm taken care of. This is an interesting story how this software came about. The owner of this company has a non verbal 13 year old Autistic Child he and a friend developed this software for his son... Once you purchase the software they send you a key code and you hot sync the software off their web site to the Palm. I will keep you posted on my progress with the Palm...
