Mustangskids… Their Story…
Mustangskids is a group of people who have banded together, in fellowship
and love, on Free Charity Cars. We are working together to support a very
special group of Families. These Families all have one thing in common:
They all have either ill, disabled or special needs children. Free Charity Cars
is a Nationwide Charity that awards free vehicles to qualified individuals or
entities. These vehicles all come from donations.
The web-site, http://www.freecharitycars.org works on a voting system. You
create an account, add members to your friends list and receive votes. The
more votes you receive, the higher you will move up in your individual state
and national ranking. The higher on the list a member gets, the better their
chances are at being awarded a vehicle, when a donation is made in their area.
2
The Families of these special children do not always have time to neither
garner a lot of friends nor promote themselves in their states. Many of them
do not have easy access to the internet. Many of them are subsiding at or
below poverty levels.
This is where Mustangskids comes in. We actively transfer votes to these
Families and promote for them in their individual states. These Families are
struggling, greatly, and need all of the help and support that they can get. We
promote these Families by contacting their local media outlets, newspapers,
place of residence periodicals and on-line advertisements.
We invite you to, please, take the time to read their stories. These are their
individual stories as they appear on Free Charity Cars. They have not been
edited in any way.
These are all ordinary people just like you, just like me. They are simply
dealing with extra-ordinary circumstances. Please, read their stories and if
you can find it in your heart: Please, help them.

2*4 We had to cancel one of his DR appts AGAIN because the medical bus we
used canceled us. This is the 2nd time they have done this. We have 2 strikes of
no call no show because we have canceled with less than 24 hr notice...even
though it is not our fault We so need this van! We need a van with a lift.I have
not been able to find an agency to help me with this issue.He weighs 70 pounds
and his chair alone weighs 75.At this time we are using a car seat but now with
his latest diagnoses of Juvenal osteoporosis we have to worry about breaking
3
his legs every time we put him in the van.The transport agencies that have the
vehicles cost so much to use them for the everyday things let alone just for
appointments.I know I am asking for a huge miracle but every little bit helps.I
just at my wits ends trying to keep him in society when we are getting to the
point we cannot even get him to church. We are still transporting him by
carrying him out of the house, seating him in a car seat, then lifting him out of
the car seat to his wheelchair. With his Juvenile Osteoporosis there is a risk
every time I lift him breaking a bone. In Sept of 10 he suffered his 3rd broken leg
in his 9 years of life. Thank you for reading

hello, my son has neurofibramotosis and just had brain surgery on 9-23-10. they
removed part of a tumor on his brain behind his left eye which the tumor ate
thu the eye bone causing the tumor to start pushing out his eye and causing it to
paulseate. they had to take a pice of his skull and replace the bone behing his
eye. they were not able to remove all of the tumor becacuse it is attached to
part of the brain that was making his heart rate drop as soon as they would go
near it. my son will have this and get other tumors for the rest of his life. there
is no cure for this at all. it also can cause many other diffacult problems. we are
in need of a car to help get to in from doc appts. pls keep us in your thoughts
and prayers as you will be in ours. God bless.

My son Joshua was born with a severe heart problem called "double right
ventricle outlet". Which means that he has only one good pumping chamber
working in his heart,therefore causing a lack of oxygen from getting to his brain.
Most people have 99% oxygen flowing to their brain, Joshua only had 56%
oxygen flowing to his brain causing him to be mentally delayed. Joshua has
undergone 4 open heart surgeries to correct the problem. In other words they
had to redo the entire plumbing of his heart. Joshua will still have to have
another surgery the question is not "if" but "when" to correct his heart
condition. We have to travel 4 hours to UAB in Birmingham, AL. for periodic
visits and of course his surgeries. We had a new van but we lost it after my
husband Tim lost his job due to the fact we were with our son Joshua in
Birmingham, Al. for 2 months while our son was recovering from his surgery in
2007. Then of course My husband Tim had a heart attack last year due to
enormous amount of stress he is under trying to support our family with no
employment and a poor economy. I homeschool all three of my children due to
their health issues. The city schools are just not able to handle their situation.
FCC we are in serious need of a van or suv. Thank You!!! The Etheredge Family.

My daugther was born on August 11, 2007 weighing 1 lb 13 oz. She stayed in the
NICU for 3 months and had 3 surgeries before she was 1 year old. At 1 1/2 she
was diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder which basically means her
central nervous system isn't functioning properly. Every part of my daugthers
day is a challenge. Even down to eating. She chokes on everything, including
liquids. She only eats foods you can swallow without chewing, like pureed foods
or soft foods like pasta. This can get pretty scarey since she chokes on a dailey
basis. She has a swallow study coming up soon because this could also be a
problem caused by the oxygen tube she had in NICU. With her sensory
problems, her body just doesn't work like a normal child. Also she only sleeps 4
hours a day from this disorder. Her body just doesn't realize she's tired. You can
tell she's exhausted, but shes very hyper. Because of this, I am also extremely
exhausted, but I make it through with a lot of coffee! My daugther receives
Occupational, Speech, and Feeding therapy 4 times a week to help and it takes
45 minutes to get to the therapists. I am not taking her to therapy as much as
she should because my truck recently broke down. The axel is bent and drives
with a lean, so on top of her having to ride in the front seat of a truck, it would
be even more dangerous to drive on major highways. She needs this therapy
desperately to live a better, safer life. Her therapy isn't cheap either. The
Occupational Therapist wants to start her on Listening Therapy soon and the
program will cost me $500. On a limited income and being a single parent, this
leaves me no room to save for a safer car. Free Charity Car would dramatically
improve our lives and give me comfort that my daugther is going to therapy in a
safe, comfortable vehicle. My daugther diserves the world and I can't even give
her a safe vehicle right now. My daughter is on Disability due to the fact that no
school/daycare is equipped to deal with a child like her. We are currently seeing
a Developmental Physician that will be doing an Autism test in 4 months. Not
7
only does my daugther have health problems, but I was diagnosed with Lupus
and Sjogrens Syndrome December 2009. These are auto immune disorders. This
could be the reason I had my daugther so early and it wasnt discovered til after I
had her. Basically your body creates immunities that attack your body. Lupus
mainley attacks your joints causing arthritis and pain in your muscles. Sjogrens
Syndrome mainley attacks your moisture glands causing dry eyes and dry
mouth. Both cause major fatigue and there are other severe health issues that it
could cause. I have to see an eye specialist and a Rheumatologist every 3
months to keep track of my blood count levels and to check other things,
making sure my body is working properly. I take 12 pills a day. It is a struggle to
get out of bed every day, but I remind myself I have a daugther who has more
going on and I am her only family. Some days my joints hurt so bad, I cry all day,
but my little girl stays so happy even though she is going through so much, it
inspires me to be the best mom I can be! The most important thing in my life is
my daugther and she will always have these problems and I would be so blessed
to receive a vehicle, not only for my peace of mind, but for my daugthers safety!

The picture that you see here is our daughter after she had her second open
heart surgery last month at four years of age. There are more to come as she
falls in the percentile of significate reacurance and has to have several doctor
appointments to follow up. This is a life long deal and will never go away. This
car will benifit our family in this area as we live on disability. My wife has had a
heart attack and a stroke which left her partially blind in both eyes and I have
back issues that have been operated on to the point of no longer able to do
surgery on me in fear of paralizing me. The car I have now as you can immagin
8
has major milage on it and has broken down more than once with just my wife
and daughter in it. It still has transmision issues that we just cant afford to fix at
the moment. I want to thank everybody ahead of time that reads this weather
you vote for me or not, I truly appreciate and am thankful for this chance. 12/24
We are so happy this holiday season to have her here, we wernt sure that we
would. Kassie goes back to the doctor after New Years, they have to keep watch
on her not only for the last surgery but they think that at some point she will
have a aneurysm in her heart,just pray that we make it. It's my wife's biggest
fear that we break down in the cold and snow with her. We want to wish
everybody out there a Merry Christmas and God Bless.~~~~~1/4/11~~Kassie
went back to the heart doctor today and what they fixed is looking good. O
Happy Days! She still has several issues with her heart that they can't fix at this
time so they keep watch on her and we still have our lovely long trecks to the
hospital but im so happy that she's looking good at the moment. She says that
the doctors hurt her so everytime we go it's this huge emotional and physical
toll on her ..she just dosent understand that they helped her. They said that she
will in time grow out of this and the nightmares...I just hope it's soon. To all of
my friends here, thank you so very much for your kindness. Rosetta..your a
angel. Mustang I hope you are doing better, you are in my thoughts and
prayers...to many of you to mention..we are just so glad to have met a great
group of people. Hugs to all of you and God Bless.

Hey, My name is Jennifer I have two kiddos. I have a daughter, she is 5 years old
and I have a son he is 8 years old. My son has Aspergers ,(a form of Autism) SI
dysfunction and ADHD. My son goes to Occupational Therapy and Behavior
9
Therapy 2 times a week. We do not have any transportation to get him to his
therapies or even to the Dr. to get his medicine. My son, Braden has high blood
pressure and needs medicine for that as well. He struggles to make friends. He is
bullied on a daily basis, He was recently choked on the school bus by a teenage
boy for so long that when he got off the bus he had a hard time talking and
breathing. He is called names, hit, kicked, pushed,ect.. He is depressed and has
to have Prozac. Due to his SI dysfunction he bites himself until he bleeds or will
chew on just about anything he can. We live in a rural area about 15 min. away
from the nearest town. We don't have cabs or buses. With Therapy we have
come along way. He has been going to Therapy for about 5 years now. Braden
has so much potential. He is super smart. This year he is in GT and he scored the
highest ever on the IQ GT test. (I am very proud of him) We had a car but it
broke down then while trying to get up enough money to fix it we couldn't
afford the payments so it was Repossessed. We are very low income family. My
husband works a part time job because we have to borrow a car to get him back
and forth to work. It would mean the world to me If we got a car. This past year
(2010) was rough and Im Praying that this year is better. Keeping the Faith♥

My daughter was born with the two main arteries of her heart in the opposite
place and a hole in the septum or the middle wall of the heart. It has been very
difficult even from my pregnancy. We have fought for the life of my daughter
10
and i thank god to the fullest that he sent me a miracle and i thank him for
letting her be with me now. She was only born 3lbs 4oz. The same day she was
transferred to NYU in new york city to have extra care and the major surgery.
Two weeks in the hospital she caught a horrible intestinal infection called NEC.
This caused her to be on antibiotics and cpap a long thick tube down her nose
all the way down to her lungs for oxygen for two whole weeks.It was very hard
to not see her respond and see her need more and more oxygen. Hard to find
my voice to talk to her while holding my tears. How I did this . How I found the
strength to do this? I have absolutely no idea because I thought that i was more
gone than her. But it was god he gave me the strength the power and the love
to give my daughter. I pushed forward and so did my daughter. At about a
month of age she finally was able to get the open heart surgery she needed.
Thankfully she recovered in a week. But she was not able to eat due to bloating.
We came to find out that what was causing the bloating was a perforation in
her intestine that caused the NEC she had caught. This meant she had to go back
in for an emergency operation. The next day she went back to the O.R. again.
Fully the doctors removed 21cm of intestine. Thank god this has been the last of
surgeries for now and hopefully not for another lifetime. She is now 8 months
old and still looks as if she is 3 months because she cannot support alot of food
in her belly. She has alot of doctor visits both here and in NY and we are
struggling alot to take her especially now in winter. Our salary is not enough for
a car not even a used car. We are just asking for transportation. Please please
help us in any way you can.

I was employed until my youngest son was born... he was 3 months premature
(weighed in at 2 pounds 6 ounces). The doctors told me the best thing I could do
was take him off life support!!! (What a thing to tell a parent! Obviously I could
not do that!) He was in NICU for 9 1/2 weeks & has numerous difficulties. He
had his first surgery at 3 weeks old. In his first year of life, he had spent 9
months in & out of hospitals (mostly in). During this time, he had 15 surgeries.
My son has 12 doctors & therapies to help with his medical conditions. Due to
all the appointments, care, etc he needs, I am not only mom, but nurse as well. I
get paid with lots of hugs & kisses! (but this doesn't work when trying to get a
vehicle lol). The engine blew up in the vehicle I had (it was 17 years old) & I have
14
not been able to attain a different one as of yet. I need a vehicle to get my son
to doctor appointments, therapies, get prescriptions/supplies, etc. Right now
getting a vehicle would help my son & I out greatly! If possible I would also need
any assistance with tax, tag & title for a vehicle! Due to being a single mother,
"making it" has been a challenge but by the grace of God, we have been
surviving. My son is now 3 years old & 32 pounds...he has grown a lot! Some of
the medical issues he has includes, cerebral palsy, seizure disorder,
hydrocephalous (with a shunt in his head), bronchio pulmonary dysplasia, & has
a G tube (feeding tube). He has a wheelchair...he cannot walk or crawl or even
sit up on his own. He is unable to talk, but has found ways of voicing his
opinions & likes/dislikes. Depite all this, he is a very happy boy & a true gift
from God. Being a single parent of a disabled child has not been easy by far &
I'm sure there will be many obstacles ahead...but if I had it to do all over again, I
would make the same choice & save his life! This child has showed me what
faith truly is & he is a miracle!
Abesmom, Utica, New York
I have an 8 year old son with a form of Autism (PDD NOS), ADHD, tic disorder,
anxiety disorder, OCD, sensory integration disorder, auditory processing delay,
etc... At birth he was diagnosed with Gastro-Esophageal reflux, preventing him
from keeping any food down. He was on an apnea monitor, 5 nebulizer
treatments daily and 6 different medications. Now his stomach has healed but
he has a psychological issue with food, and eats almost nothing. 5 years ago I
left his father after dealing with years of his emotional abuse and cheating. The
final straw was when he beat our son for not wanting to give him a kiss. Since
then he has threatened our son with a knife for not wanting to eat chicken. I
have been unable to work because I need to be home when my son is home. I
15
substitute teach when I am able. We have a car, but it needs a lot of repairs.
Wheel bearings need fixing, it is leaking gas, and now it has started to stall when
stopped at lights and stop signs. While I admit that I need help badly I am still
doing my best to vote, promote and transfer votes to friends. Thank you FCC,
and thank you to all of you that vote! God bless you all and good luck to you! :)

Receiving a free charity car would help make life getting Sophia back and forth
to doctors appointments and therapy much easier. Sophia is my third child and
my only girl. In 2009 I was over the moon to find out I was having a girl. My
pregnancy was wonderful and I documented each week with pregnancy photos.
This was until I had a scan at 20 weeks that revealed my daughter would be
born with arm malformations. Soon after that scan we were seeing numerous
specialist and having all sorts of testing. From an fetal MRI, fetal
echocardiograms, fetal stress tests, amniocentisis, and more. At 26 weeks I
learned just how Sophia's arms would look and that she had a heart defect. I
was also told Sophia's legs and feet were extremely deformed and that my
chances of delivering a stillborn baby were much greater than her survival rate.
Doctors told me this was a syndrome that had never been seen before and we
were the discussion on several medical boards. Just 8 weeks later Sophia
16
stopped growing and had to be delivered right away via c-section. The time had
finally come. I prayed nightly for the chance to look into her eyes and tell her
how loved she is, even if that meant I only had a few seconds before God called
her back home. As I layed on the operating room table I asked if I would have
the chance to see her before she was whisked away to the awaiting team of
doctors and nurses. The answer was a simple No followed by the explination
that she would not be breathing on her own. As a mother, I had never felt so
helpless before. I did the only thing I could do. I closed my eyes and prayed. I
prayed from a place within me that I had never known before. I was a mother
praying for the life of her child. Soon I heard a someone scream, "look Sara!" I
opened my eyes and looking back at me, I saw the most beautiful site I had ever
seen. I knew then, that although Sophia had a long hard road ahead, she was
going to live! God was in my delivery room that day. He heard this mothers
prayers. She was breathing on her own and while her arms were "different" her
legs and feet were perfect! Sophia spent 2 long months in the neonatal
intensive care unit and I was by her side every minute of every day. She was 2
pounds 8 ounces at birth and when we left the hospital she was 4 pounds 8
ounces. Sophia was diagnosed with Cornelia De Lange Syndrome. If you are not
familiar with it, I encourage you to look it up. Sophia suffers from a heart
condition, malformations of her arms, moderate to severe hearing loss in both
ears which she wears hearing aids for, vision loss that is corrected with glasses,
GERD and developmental delay. Sophia might never learn to talk or walk on her
own and her life expectancy is unknown. I never wished to have this life, but I
wouldnt change her for the world. She has taught me so many lessons. I have
learned to appreciate everything in life and not to take a single second for
granted. I am no longer able to work due to Sophia's busy schedule. As of right
now she see's a total of 10 specialist and 7 therapist. I'm always looking for
ways to help Sophia reach her maximum potential so we might end up adding
more before it's all said and done. Sophia is my CdLS DIVA!

Hi, my name is Jerry Peters and I have two boys with duchenne muscular
dystrophy. When I came across this website a feeling of being blessed came
over me. If I could get a handicapped accessible van for my two boys so taking
them places would be easier. The last two years have been very tough with
losing my job and going through a divorce. If I was to be blessed with a van
things would be that much better for us. UPDATE 12-20-10 Dillon is 7 now and
has a different powered wheelchair that requires a vehicle he can drive straight
into. I have my boys over every weekend to spend a couple of nights. He can't
have his powered wheelchair at my place because I'm not equipped for that. So
I pick him up out of his wheelchair and carry him to my non handicapped
vehicle.
