Help with getting Leg Braces for Leland

Granted by Heroes: Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest
My wish upon a Hero is for my 18 month son Leland.
Leland started walking when he was 9 months old and he would keep falling over his feet. I went to the Dr and they told me to wait intil he was around 18 months because sometime they just old grow it. I just went to the Dr last week and had
x-ray done because he is still falling over his feet. His poor bones from his knees down never straigten out and was told the next step is my little guy needed to be put in leg braces. I didnt think to much about the cost because we have insure . I got a call from the place that are making his braces and said I had to come up with $4,000.00 up front to cover the braces. I almost fell over in tears. There was no way I had $4,000. I have never ask for help from anyone before. I have work everyday from the time I turned 15 years old and im 33 now. If someone can help me I will pay everything back if need be or I can pay it forward. Please help me get my Son Leland braces for this legs!!! Thank You so much for reading my wish for my son

We have been waiting on a call back from the Shriners Hospital the closest one to us is in Pa. There is a waiting list. The bad part about them being so far away is My hubby and I cant keep taking time off work to travel to and from. I mean we will do what we need to do. But still need to try to raise the money to get him into these as soon as we can.

I have no issue doing that . Who do I email that to?

I would think providing the documents that state it is not covered by insurance would help.

contact security to get your wish verified (just email them papers proving your wish to be true/valid) it might get more heroes & also allows your wish to be featured on the main page. (it was a lot of help to my wish for my son last month) also contact your local lions club. they help with a lot of this kind of stuff.
https://directory.lionsclubs.org/ also contact the hospital a lot of times you can set up a payment plan.
God Bless & I will be praying for you!

We have about two to three weeks before the braces are ready . In order for us to get them we have to have the money .
