MARINE VET with MS HERO who NEEDS our help! HANDICAP VAN

My name is Marnie, I am sending a wish request for my friend Scott Bates (posted in my profile pic). He is a Marine Vet with MS! He tried to win a new handicap mobility van and didn't! Since then, he has purchased a USED handicap van that needs some body work and upgrades. I am posting the link to his story which shows his van and a TV interview! Scott can not use his arms or legs. He is a graphic designer by using a micro chip on his hat that tells his brain to tell the computer what to do! He likes to design cars for NASCAR drivers and did so last year for JJ Yeley! My wish is for him to have the money he needs to fix his handicap van or a brand new one that doesn't need fixing. Scott fought for our country and now he needs our help! He is an INSPIRATION to us all to NEVER GIVE UP! I can't think of a better way to thank a Vet than by giving back! Him and his family NEED and DESERVE it! http://www.ernhrtfanracing.com/mobility.html#.T7UCkBxPYdA.twitter I know they would be so very grateful and thankful! Please HELP! I thank you very much!

    Thank you for serving our country. My Fiance is in the Army and I know what everyone you love has gone through! I know it isn't much (I am currently trying to pay for a wedding) but if I can I will donate more!

I meant Scott rents his home, not his computer! This is my first Grant a Wish request! Can you tell? lol

MarnieDulian 11 months ago

Thank you for the comments and your help, much appreciated! If this wish sounds like Scott should have money b/c he designed ONE NASCAR car, he does not! He does not have a shop or anything like that. He works on his computer from his home that he rents. It was a hobby at first to keep him going. He has been fighting the VA for the past 8 years regarding his medical bills and is now in the appeals process! He purchased a new/used mini van but doesn't have the money to put the necessary parts in it! There is also body damage that needs to be repaired so his family can not use it! I apologize if it does not sound like he is in dire need but he truly is. I hope you can only imagine the hospital bills he has and will continue to have. I don't understand why ANY VET in the USA should be asking for money but unfortunately we are! Thank you so very much for all that you do here! Any little bit helps! Sincerly, Marnie and Scott
