"Can you help me bring some sunshine into her life by giving her the chance to play on a swing set like every other child?"
Swingit Playsets
I’d like to nominate my very special nine-year-old foster sister, Chedva.
Chedva came into my life one and a half years ago after the passing of her incredible foster mother.
She may be nine years old, but she’s the size of a small three-year-old due to her many medical complications. She’s very often oxygen- dependent and requires a ventilator at night; she’s also frequently hospitalized with severe pneumonia, sometimes remaining there for weeks or even months. Chedva has severe osteopenia, which means that she fractures her bones very easily (she’s currently in a cast from thigh down).
All of this doesn’t stop her from loving every second of life. She’s a real trooper, my sister, always smiling, laughing, cracking jokes, and making sure everyone around her is happy. The doctors and nurses fight over who is going to care for her, as she makes everyone feel so loved.
