laughingatmynightmare:Is there anything cuter than severe muscle wasting plus two painfully adorable kittens?Hi. I’m Shane Burcaw, and if you don’t know me, I’m the dude with the enormous head in the picture above. I was born with a lovely disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy. It causes my muscles to waste away as I get older. I’ve been in a wheelchair my entire life. If you’re in the market for a new disease, I’d highly recommend this one.I am on a mission to help other people with my disease, and I believe that my incredibly supportive Tumblr family can help me achieve those dreams.I’m going to keep this super brief: Living with muscular dystrophy is fucking expensive. I need about 45,000 different pieces of specialized equipment just to stay alive and comfortable. But here’s the shitty part: There are so many people with my disease who don’t have those items they need to thrive. I want to change that.I’ve developed a program called No More Nightmares that gives people with MD the stuff they need to live more awesomely. To help SIX people this year, I need to raise $40,000. Anything that you can do to donate or reblog this post will be massively helpful, and I can’t thank you enough if you choose to support my cause. Here is the link to donate (or you can just click that sexy picture above): http://igg.me/at/nomorenightmares/x/9161855 -- source link
